INSTRUCTIONS ON QUILTING WITH AN EMBROIDERY MACHINE

Quilting outline designs are designed to be stitched in an embroidery hoop with the whole "quilt sandwich" = quilt top, batting/wadding and background fabric hooped together.
 
* Use 40-weight embroidery or other similar thread.  You will experience tension problems if you use quilting thread  it is too stiff and thick.  
 
* Hoop the entire "sandwich" firmly being careful not to tighten the screw on the hoop too much.  If you quilt a lot, you might want to consider buying a separate hoop for quilting only as not to stretch the hoop too much.
If you wish to use stabilizer, float it underneath, but this should not be necessary.
 
* Check the tension on a sample sandwich first.
 
* Start with the middle blocks on the quilt and work outwards.
 
* If possible, place the embroidery machine on a higher or larger table, so that it is easy to stand or sit by it and there's plenty of space for the embroidery arm and quilt to move freely. It is important that the whole quilt is on the same surface as the embroidery machine or that it is otherwise supported, to avoid the weight of the quilt from distracting the embroidery arm movement.
 
* When you are ready to embroider - mark the centre point on each quilt block, hoop the sandwich (Hobbs Heirloom Premium Cotton Batting was used at the time of testing) as accurately in the middle of the hoop as possible and adjust your machine to the same centre point where your mark on the quilt is. Start stitching.
  
Each block only takes a few minutes to stitch, so you can easily finish the quilting even in a day - not bad! 
 
Enjoy.
