When sewing the hand-look quilting stitch, the result
depends on what fabric, bat ting and thread you are
using. The thread tension is set au to mat i cal ly for
sew ing a quilt using cotton fabric, cotton batting and
Sulky 40 weight Rayon thread in the bobbin and
Sulky invisible thread on top. When sewing a quilt
using other fabrics/battings/threads, be sure to try
the stitch on a sam ple fi rst. Set the thread tension in
as need ed for your project.

thread to see the stitch, invisible for a stitch that is
barely visible, or black thread for a “folk art” look.
