1 /4 inch Quilt and patchwork foot A quilt consists of two layers of fabric with a layer of batting sandwiched between. Many geometric pieces of fabric are joined together in continually changing patterns to form the top layer of the quilt This is tacked to a middle layer of polyester or cotton batting and a backing layer. The 1/4 inch quilt and patchwork foot is parti cularly suitable for joining your pieces of fabric. The clearance between the needle and the outer edge of the foot is 1 /4 (6.3 mm) and between the needle and the inner edge of the foot 1/8" (3.1 5 mm). - Attach the 1/4 inch quilt and patchwork foot - Sew together your pieces of fabric using program 1 For a seam allowance of 1 /4" guide your fabric along the outer edge of the foot For a seam allowance of 1 /8 guide your fabric along the inner edge of the foot Program: I Stitch length: 2.5 Quilting of the fabric layers: In traditional quilting the three layers of fabric are joined with small hand stitches. This handstitched look can be accomplished faster and easier with the sewing machine (program 11). - Use invisible (monofilament) thread in the needle. Use a contrast or complementary polyester or cotton thread in the bobbin. - Set the needle thread tension to 7-9. Loosen the bobbin thread tension approximately 1/4 turn counterclockwise to allow the needle thread to pull the bobbin thread to the top side of your work. You may find it beneficial to purchase a second bobbin case (available from your PFAFF dealer) for working with specialty techniques and threads. - 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 handstitched appearance. Adjust your needle and bobbin thread tensions as needed to pro duce the desired effect Tension: 3 - 5 Program: 11 Stitch length: 3 - 4 Tension: 9 106

is

cularly
suitable
for
joining

In
traditional
quilting
the
three
layers
of
fabric
are
joined
with
small
hand
stitches.
This

look
can
be
accomplished
faster

with
the
sewing
machine
(program

Use
invisible

needle.
Use
a

or
complementary
polyester
or
cotton
thread
in
the
bobbin.
Set
the
needle
thread
tension
to
7-9.
Loosen
the
bobbin
thread
tension
approximately
1/4
turn
counterclockwise
to
allow
the
needle
thread
to
pull
the
bobbin
thread
to

side
of
your
work.
You
may
find
it
beneficial
to
purchase
a
second
bobbin
case
(available
from
your
PFAFF
dealer)
for
working
with
specialty

and
threads.
When

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.
