Quilting Quilting is a traditional sewing technique. The method that the wives of American settlers developed to make use of material remnants has become an artistic hobby with many enthusiasts in our country, too. A quilt always consists of three layers of material. Lots of geometrically shaped pieces of material are joined together in continually changing patterns to form the top layer of the auilt. This is tacked onto the middle layer made of polyester padding and connected to the back layer of the quilt that usually consists of one uniform piece of material The entire quilt is often also bordered with the back layer. Of course, the work of piecing the individual bits of material together must be very precise. Trie Dual Feed is of particular assistance when doing this. And this is what you do. Cut out the parts of your quilt with templates you have bought or made your self. A seam allowance of 0,7 cm should already be included in the templates. - Spread out the parts as in the pattern and form small squares that you can match together. These squares are then sewn together to form the surface of the quilt. - The seam allowances of quilts are not serged up but just smoothed out - never i1 roned In traditional quilts these three layers of material are sewn together by hand with small stitches - but it is quicker and more practical with the sewing machine e.g. with the program ID stretch or L stretch. There is always stitching about 3 mm beside the seam. Embroidered stitches look very good on plain coloured material. Use foot number 0 for this work. When your quilt is finished you can make it into cushions, wall hangings or bed covers. 67

Quilting
Quilting
is
a
traditional
sewing
technique.
The
method
that
the
wives
of
American
settlers
developed
to
make
use
of
material
remnants
has
become
an
artistic
hobby
with
many
enthusiasts
in
our
country,
too.
A
quilt
always
consists
of
three
layers
of
material.
Lots
of
geometrically
shaped
pieces
of
material
are
joined
together
in
continually
changing
patterns
to
form
the
top
layer
of
the
auilt.
This
is
tacked
onto
the
middle
layer
made
of
polyester
padding
and
connected
to
the
back
layer
of
the
quilt
that
usually
consists
of
one
uniform
piece
of
material
The
entire
quilt
is
often
also
bordered
with
the
back
layer.
Of
course,
the
work
of
piecing
the
individual
bits
of
material
together
must
be
very
precise.
Trie
Dual
Feed
is
of
particular
assistance
when
doing
this.
Cut
out
the
parts
of
your
quilt with
templates
you
have
bought
or
made
your
self.
A
seam
allowance
of
0,7
cm
should
already
be
included
in
the
templates.
—
Spread
out
the
parts
as
in
the
pattern
and
form
small
squares
that
you
can
match
together.
These
squares
are
then
sewn
together
to
form
the
surface
of
the
quilt.
—
The
seam
allowances
of
quilts
are
not
serged
up
but
just
smoothed
out
—
never
ironed
1
In
traditional
quilts
these
three
layers
of
material
are
sewn
together
by
hand
with
small
stitches
—
but
it
is
quicker
and
more
practical
with
the
sewing
machine
e.g.
with
the
program
ID
stretch
or
L
stretch.
There
is
always
stitching
about
3
mm
beside
the
seam.
Embroidered
stitches
look
very
good
on
plain
coloured
material.
Use
foot
number
0
for
this
work.
When
your
quilt
is
finished
you
can
make
it
into
cushions,
wall
hangings
or
bed
covers.
And
this
is
what
you
do.
