Please let me know where you found it. I don't want stippling just a grid. Thanks, Rebecca ------ Rebecca Pitts Bernina 430 Singer xl-6000 Babylock Imagine Elna 7200 Ellisimo Janome MB4

I have found quilting (stitching the layers together and not piecing section for the top) with the embroidery machine results in a much better job that when I use the sewing machine. Some of the quilting stitch designs do not always suit the theme of the quilt, so I create my own. Wishing you many fun and successful projects.

I would love to know more about what you have found that works, what doesn't, etc. Thanks! Beth

Date: 11/25/12 12:13 PM First you need to add extra fabric around the block in addition to the 1/4" seam allowance. Because the embroidery pulls up the fabric. I would allow at least 1" in addition to the 1/4" seam allowance. What I do is hoop the stabilizer. Spray adhesive on the stabilizer. Put down the batting. Spray adhesive on the batting and then put the fabric down. You may or may not want to hoop baste around the design. I would do a test sample first. Each block would be quilted this way. Then each block would be assembled using this method: http://lifeisbeautifulbom.wordpress.com/quilt-as-you-go-tutorial/ Note: this will only quilt the front of the square. If you want to quilt both sides you will need to choose a quilting running stitch motif. Then you would hoop the backing wrong side up with the stabilizer on top and then do the rest. I hope this helps. ------ Rebecca Pitts Bernina 430 Singer xl-6000 Babylock Imagine Elna 7200 Ellisimo Janome MB4

If you want to quilt the 3 layers together did you mean you put the stabilizer on top of the 3 layers? What kind of stabilizer would you use? Thanks! Beth
