It does the job. Excellent product.

It looks like a lot of fabric is wasted . I like the baste idea. It keeps everything together.

thank you very nice TUTS! SO APPRECIATE this Help! Zerlene W.

So, if you were quilting your entire quilt using Bernina embroidery function, wouldn't you jus hoop the entire sandwich with no stabilizer? I have been trying to find videos on how to correctly set this up and with easy step by step process.

Though it's for a smaller project than a full quilt, here's a preview for an episode of Absolute Beginner Machine Embroidery where the host, Sara Gallegos, uses that method, no stabilizer needed because the batting acts as a stabilizer: kzread.info/dash/bejne/hYB8u86amcuqhqQ.html You can find the full episode here: bit.ly/2bc5giB Full quilts can be hooped in the same way with the batting acting as the stabilizer, though the excess quilt would have to be rolled and pinned/clipped out of the way during the embroidery process.

You're right -- you don't need stabilizer. If this makes you nervous, be sure to use water soluble, so you can get rid of it completely. Have a look at Edge to Edge (Amelie Scott) or stitch delight (Daleen Lubbe).

Do you have to do a basting stitch?

I have a 12 needle Happy Voyager and since I have a disability, I like to use my emb. machine to the fullest when I quilt. What I am wondering is, how do you eliminate the knot on the back of the quilt square, where the machine knots off each design. The back ends up full of knots. Is there a way to avoid those? Thanks.

Marguerite Farrell On most patterns and machines, there's a way to turn off the tie-off knot itself, but either way, you'll need to take a hand-needle and bury the threads within the quilt itself (basically, taking them into the batting), and since embroidery machine knots are small, you can almost always pull the knot into the batting as well when doing that. Depending on the complexity of the design, this can mean burying a lot of knots/ends or just a few.

Thanks. I will look into that and see if I can turn off the knot function. I basically know how to bury knots so I will try that, too. I am sort of an intermediate quilter, I have been sewing almost 50 years, and love it. I would spend hours at the machine but I have such trouble with neck pain, that I have to do less, so I am doing some hand work, such as hexies.

what is prize this machine

I have just learned of edge to edge quilting with an embroidery machine. I have the Bernina 180E it is an older version. Can with the machine have never used it, do you think this will work with the older machine? Thanks for any info you can give.

Your only limitation will likely be the size of your largest hoop.

There are many ways to quilt a quilt, and one of them happens to involve using an embroidery machine. Learn more with Quilters Newsletter Machine Quilting Tips & Techniques: kzread.info/dash/bejne/mo13u66ldrrNlJc.html

Do you put the ‘slide on table’ also on when embroidering with the Bernina 570QE?

When using an embroidery machine for quilt blocks, you should ALWAYS use stabilizer. Using a very light weight Pellon sew-in interfacing offers the embroidery the stabilization it needs. Now... this is the case especially if you are stitching embroidery designs upon a block... The Pellon sew-in is "fairy light" and you don't know it's even there inside your block.

Thanks Teriann: On most all designs I embroider, with the embroidery machine, I use a sticky stabilizer for support. So if I understand correctly, instead of using any other kind of stabilizer I should only use a light weight Pellon sew-in stablizer, inplace of the sticky stabilizer for machine embroidery quilt blocks, correct?

Yes. That is correct. It offers proper stabilizing for the embroidery portion of the quilt block.

Especially if the embroidery is detailed. If you are piecing in the hoop using a specific design digitized for this art, you will use a sticky back or fusible mesh stabilizer.

If you're doing an intricate embroidery (like some redwork designs), it can be very difficult to remove the stabilizer afterwarads. There is normally enough stability when the top, batting & backing is all hooped - starch if you need more stiffness. Floating the quilt means you will need to be able to get rid of the stabilizer (water soluble) or leave off the backing til later.

Dommage qu'il n'ait pas de traduction en français !

I wouldn't call this *quilting* in an embroidery machine,I would call it "embroidering". quilting is what you do over top of a finished block..

This ismore like te "Quilt As You Go" technique. It;s still quilting, which is stitching the layers together. Can be done by hand, free motion, stitch in the ditch, embroidery designs or by long-arm quilting machine.
