STITCHES
You can duplicate the look of a hand quilted stitch
by using monofilament thread in the needle, 50 to
60 weight cotton thread in the bobbin, and
increasing the needle tension. The needle tension
and stitch length will need to be determined based
on the thickness of the fabrics and batting.

Note: Monofilament thread may be
substituted with a thread that matches or
blends with the color of the top fabric.
Place the two pieces of fabric with the right sides
together and sew with the straight stitch.
Open the seam allowances and press it flat.
On the right side of the joined pieces of fabric
place the center of the presser foot on the seam
line and sew over the seam with decorative
stitching.
