UUU[dLlVt tVVIlIy/peLIaILy iiiiiiu i Tying the Quilt Tying a quilt is another way to hold the quilt top, batting and back together. Previously done by hand, your Expression 2034/2044 has great decorative stitches that will "tie" your quilt with ease. Choose a decorative stitch that is a forward moving stitch, such as 63 or 66 (56 or 58 for model 2034). Prepare your quilt as explained in the Stitch-in-the-Ditch method. In order to sew the stitch only once, press the tie-off button when you have started to sew. Now sew this stitch every 3 4 - (7- 10 cm) all over the quilt. Again plan your stitch placement so that there is a nice pattern on the front and the back. This is a very simple and beautiful way to secure a quilt. Free Motion Stippling Free Motion Stippling not only keeps the top, batting and backing together, but it also adds texture and interest to your quilt. Set your Expression for stippling with a Straight Stitch (1). Attach the darning foot. Lower the feed dog and set up your machine in the darning position. Prepare your quilt as explained in the Stitch-in-the-Ditch method. Practice stippling on scraps of fabric and batting. When the feed dog is lowered you control the stitch length. Remember using a constant speed will help to keep the stitches even. Begin near the center of your quilt. Take one stitch and pull the bobbin thread to the top of the quilt. Take a few stitches right next to one another to secure the threads. Now move the quilt so that your stitching creates scrolls and swirls. The stippling should not cross itself - make one long continuous swirl of stitching. Tip: Use the Free-motion guide grip (4125388-01) to help move the quilt in a more consistent way The Quilting table and Free-motion guide foot are extra accessories created to make your stippling easier 106

i
Tying
the
Quilt
Tying
a
quilt
is
another
way
to
hold
the
quilt
top,
batting
and
back
together.
Previously
done
by
hand,
your
Expression
2034/2044
has
great
decorative
stitches
that
will
“tie”
your
quilt with
ease.
Choose
a
decorative
stitch
that
is
a
forward
moving
stitch,
such
as
63
or
66
(56
or
58
for
model
2034).
Prepare
your
quilt
as
explained
in
the
Stitch-in-the-Ditch
method.
In
order
to
sew
the
stitch
only
once,
press
the
tie-off
button
when
you
have
started
to
sew.
Now
sew
this
stitch
every
3
—
4
(7—
10
cm)
all
over
the
quilt.
Again
plan your stitch
placement
so
that
there
is
a
nice
pattern
on
the
front
and
the
back.
This
is
a
very
simple
and
beautiful
way
to
secure
a
quilt.
Free
Motion
Stippling
Free
Motion
Stippling
not
only
keeps
the
top,
batting
and
backing
together,
but
it
also
adds
texture and interest
to
your
quilt.
Set
your
Expression
for
stippling
with
a
Straight
Stitch
(1).
Attach
the darning
foot.
Lower
the
feed
dog
and
set
up
your
machine
in
the
darning
position.
Prepare
your
quilt
as
explained
in
the
Stitch-in-the-Ditch
method.
Practice
stippling
on
scraps
of
fabric
and
batting.
When
the
feed
dog
is
lowered
you
control
the
stitch
length.
Remember
using
a
constant
speed
will
help
to
keep
the
stitches
even.
Begin
near
the
center
of
your
quilt.
Take
one
stitch
and
pull
the
bobbin
thread
to
the
top
of
the
quilt.
Take
a
few
stitches
right
next
to
one
another
to
secure
the
threads.
Now
move
the
quilt
so
that
your
stitching
creates
scrolls
and
swirls.
The
stippling
should
not
cross
itself
—
make
one
long
continuous
swirl
of
stitching.
Tip:
Use
the
Free-motion
guide
grip
(4125388-01)
to
help
move the
quilt
in
a
more
consistent
way The
Quilting
table
and
Free-motion
guide
foot
are
extra
accessories
created
to
make your
stippling
easier
