Quilting
Quilting is a traditional hand sewing technique. The method that the wives
of American settlers
developed to make use of material remnants has become a very popular artistic
hobby for many
sewing enthusiasts.
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 quilt This is
tacked onto the middle layer of polyester or cotton hatting and connected to
the back layer of the
quilt The quilt backing is usually one uniform piece of fabric.
The entire quilt is sometimes also bordered with the back layer. The work of
piecing the individual
bits of material together must be very precise. For quilting, the 1 /4” quiltin
g toot is particularly
suitable (special accessory). The distance between the needle and the outer
edge of the foot is
1 /4 inch, i.e. 6.3 mm, and from the inner edge of the toot 1/8 inch (3.1 5
mm>.
In addition, the tiptronic 2040 and the tiptronic 2030 have quilt stitch No.
11 and No. 1 5, which
enable you to quickly and easily achieve a hand-quilted look! Use invisible sewing
thread (nylon
monofilament) as the needle thread and wind the bobbin with cotton thread
to contrast or blend
with the colors of your quilt top. The needle thread tension must be set
quite tight (7), and the
bobbin thread tension quite slack (approximately 1/4 turn counterclock
wise> to allow the needle
thread to pull the bobbin thread to the top of your quilt When you sew
the stitch on the three
plies of fabric of the quilt, you only see the triple stitch of the bobbin thread
. The intermediate
stitch disappears and thus appears to be hand-quilted (see page 76>.
