It will take some experimenting on scrap fabric to find the exact settings you want for your applique. Set the width at a medium setting to start, and adjust from there. Use an Open Toe Foot (additional accessory for some machine models) which can be helpful because it provides a clear view of the sewing area. The center of the stitch should hug the outside edge of the applique, the left side of the stitch sews on the applqiue, and the right side of the stitch sew onto the main fabric. This decorative stitch can be used to embellish a quilt binding. Allow the center of the stitch to sew in the "ditch" between the main quilt and the binding. The horizontal stitches will sew into the quilt binding on the right and into the main quilt on the left, adding a decorative touch. This decorative stitch can be used to sew appliques.

Experiment with various types of thread such as rayon thread, allpurpose thread, metallic thread, topstitching thread, or even 30wt and 12wt cotton. Use a needle that is appropriate for the type of thread you are using. It is also helpful to use a stabilizer to help support the stitches. Learn more about needles and stabilizer on the SINGER website. Use this decorative stitch to embellish seams on quilt tops. For a bold appearance, try 30wt or 12wt cotton in the needle. At the end of a row of stitching, instead of reverse stitching, bring thread tails to the back side using a hand sewing needle, then tie to secure.
