Quilting prog [ 00 (C] [i -- • Edge guide Seams stitched on articles filled with cotton wool or some other soft padding have a very prominent effect. For this purpose, batting, foam plastic or flannel is placed between the top ply and a light weight bottom ply (Fig. 3). To keep the fabric plies and the padding in place, baste them together with rows of long basting stit ches spread over the whole area. Squares and diamonds can be sewn on the straight or on the bias of the material. On fabrics with regular patterns stitch between the patterns or around them. The spacing between seams can be set as requi red by adjusting the guide accordingly. Trace the seam line for the first seam on the fabric or guide the quilting gauge along the straight-cul fabric edge. When you have completed the first seam move the work sideways so that the quilting gauge rum along the first seam or the traced seam line. Fo each subsequent seam, guide the gauge finge along the preceding line of stitching (Fig. 1). Quilting can also be done advantageously on pat terned materials. Preparation of the material is the same as describ ed above. Just sew around the contours and yot have a very beautiful piece of embroidery (Fig. 2) During the operation the needle position mus not be changed. 2
