Hand-Look Quilt Stitch; Button Sewing - Singer C7290Q Manual De Instrucciones

Hand-Look Quilt Stitch

Simulate the look of hand sewn quilting with the Hand-look
Quilting stitch. Thread the needle with either transparent thread
or with a thread that blends with the color of the top of the fab-
ric. Thread the bobbin with a thread color that coordinates or
contrasts with the top of the fabric, depending on the look you
want for your project (the bobbin thread will actually appear on
the top of the fabric).
• To get the accurate hand stitched look it is important that
the stitch is sewn using a high thread tension. Make sure
to set the tension according to the recommendations in the
stitch chart.
• Stitch along one of the seams of your project, or around
an appliqué. The handlook effect is created as the bobbin
thread is pulled up to the top of the fabric.
• Use the quilting guide to make even rows of channel quilt-
ing or echo quilting as illustrated. Insert the Edge/Quilting
Guide into the groove at the back of the presser foot holder
and adjust the position to fit your project.

Button Sewing

ing stitch.

2. Lower the feed teeth.
3. Attach the Button Sewing Foot to your machine.
4. Mark the placement of the button with a marking pen (A).
5. Place your project under the presser foot, place the button
under the foot aligning it with the marking on the fabric.
Lower the presser foot (B).

the thread tail around the shank.

side of the fabric and secure.
