Piecing

1/4 inch).

Quilting 

Sewing the quilt top, batting, and backing together is 
called quilting. You can sew the quilt with the 
walking foot to keep the quilt top, batting, and 
backing from sliding. The walking foot has a set of 
feed dogs that move together with the feed dogs in 
the needle plate during sewing.
For straight line quilting, use the walking foot and 
the straight stitch needle plate. Always select a 
straight stitch (middle needle position) when using 
the straight stitch needle plate.

a

Select ,  

or .

b

Attach the walking foot (see page 55).

c

Place one hand on each side of the presser 
foot to hold the fabric secure while sewing.

Memo

• Using a straight stitch (middle needle posi-

tion) makes it easier to sew smoothly (see 
page 83).

Note

• Thread the needle manually when using the 

walking foot, or only attach the walking foot 
after threading the needle using the 
“Automatic Threading” button.

Memo

• Sew at slow to medium speed. 

• Do not sew in reverse or use stitches that 

require side ways or reverse feeding. 
Always check to be sure that your quilting 
surface is securely basted before beginning 
to sew. Specialized machine quilt needles 
and threads are also available for machine 
quilting.
