fabric
can
be
joined
together
in
continually
changing
patterns
to
form
the
top
layer
of
the
quilt.
The
1/4
inch

and
between

edge
of

foot
1/8”
(3.15

Qui[ting
multiple
fabric
layers
in
traditional
quilting,
three
layers
of
fabric
are
joined
with
small
hand
stitches.
This
handstitched
look
can
be
accomplished
faster
and easier
with
the
sewing
machine
(stitch
11).
•
Use
invisible
(monofilament)
thread
in
the
needle.
Use
a
contrast
or
matching
polyester
or
cotton
thread
in
the
bobbin.
•
Set
the
needle
thread
tension
to
T9.
•
When
you
sew
the
stitch
on
the
three
layers
of
your
quilt,
you
should
only
see
the
triple
stitch
of
your
bobbin
thread.
The
intermediate
stitch
disappears
and
thus
produces
a
hand-
stitched
appearance.
Adjust
your
needle
thread
tensions
as
needed
to
produce
the
desired
effect.
Tip: You
might
want
to
purchase
an
accessory
bobbin
case
for
special
techniques.
