Machine Quilting Tip: Quilting speed while in stitch-regulation mode
It is unlikely that you will move the Infinity across the quilt too fast. However, if you do,
it will result in an overspeed condition if the machine can’t maintain stitch regulation. An
overspeed alarm, if turned on, will alert you that you should slow down your quilting to
maintain stitch regulation.
Basting Mode
The Infinity includes five basting stitch options for basting a quilt. The basting stitch options are available in
stitch regulation mode only.
The stitches-per-inch setting ranges between 5 stitches per inch and 24 stitches per inch. If you continue to
press the minus (–) button on the screen, after 5 you will see B1/4", B1/2", B1", B2", and B4".
B1/4" One stitch every quarter inch of movement of the machine
B1/2" One stitch every half inch of movement of the machine
B1" One stitch every one inch of movement of the machine
B2" One stitch every two inches of movement of the machine
B3" One stitch every four inches of movement of the machine

To baste a quilt
1. Touch the Regulated button.
2. Press the minus (–) button next to the stitches-per-inch box on the screen until you see 5 stitches per
inch. Continue touching the minus (–) button and the four basting stitch options appear. Choose the
one you want to use – either B1/4", B1/2", B1", B2", or B4".
3. Begin basting the quilt by pressing the Start button. As you move the machine across the quilt, it will
perform a stitch (needle down and then needle up) every one quarter, one half, one, two, or four inches
according to your choice of basting stitch length.
Machine Quilting Tip: Basting the edges of the quilt
If you are basting the edges of the quilt to the batting and backing, choose a low number
of stitches per inch, somewhere between 5 to 8 stitches per inch, rather than one of the
basting-mode stitches. This will help to prevent the hopping foot from going between the
batting and quilt top.
