Patchwork/Quilting
Outline Quilting
Thread the needle with cotton quilting thread. Select a straight
stitch with a length of 2.5mm.
Using needle and thread as a “pencil”, trace/stitch outlines about
¼” from the printed figures in the center strip of the quilt block.
If available, engage the Needle Stop Down function when
quilting. This will cause the needle to always stop down in the
fabric, lessening the chance of the fabric shifting each time
stitching is stopped and started again.
Practice makes perfect. Before quilting, create a sample “quilt
sandwich” using the same fabrics and batting as your project.
Practice stitching perfect curves and corners. Even experienced
quilters can always use a warm-up before stitching.
