    I've been sewing and quilting for years and have never seen this! I'm currently working on a baby quilt for my granddaughter, who is due in April. This will allow me to do a custom label! My only question is going between the words, when you pull the thread to start the next word, are those stitches secure enough so that they won't come undone?

    • @clairemuirfreemachineembro7863
      @clairemuirfreemachineembro7863 7 місяців тому

      Hi @patriciaharper5735 yes, if you stitch on the spot at the end of each letter that will really make them secure. Good luck with the quilt

    I’m not sure if I missed this in the instructions. Do you have the walking feet down? I tried to zoom in but I couldn’t tell for sure.☺️ I have a pair of jeans that I need to hem. I’m trying to match the stitches which is a triple stitch with a thick bobbin thread. In my case, I think it’s similar to Gütermann’s Extra Strong Thread in the bobbin. When doing a stitch like this for hemming, would you put the bobbin thread through the tension holder?

    • @clairemuirfreemachineembro7863
      @clairemuirfreemachineembro7863 8 місяців тому

      @jenniferstinert5498 Hi, yes, I do have the feed dogs or teeth lowered on my machine for this technique. If you are trying to match the thread in a triple stitch then you are probably best using Gutermann Topstitch thread in the top of your machine and follow the following instructions. As you will be sewing conventionally, have your feed dogs/ teeth raised. For machine stitching with Gutermann Topstitch, we recommend a thinner thread in the bobbin such as Gutermann Extra Strong or Gutermann Natural Cotton. We also recommend a sharp, large-eyed machine needle such as a Schmetz Topstitch 100. Hope that helps

      @clairemuirfreemachineembro7863 Perhaps, I just need to start collecting!! 😂 Do you like one better than the other? (475 vs 480) I am wanting something I can travel with, but can also do projects on both machines if I choose, which is why I am leaning towards the 480 since it has the 9mm feed dogs like my 570 🤔

      @@pugmama3338I could think of worse habits than collecting Bernina machines! My 475 I take with me when I teach elsewhere and my 480 is set up at home. I wouldn’t say I prefer one over the other. It depends if you want the 5.5mm vs 9mm stitch width as the 480 has the 9mm.
