SEW ART MONOFILAMENT HOW TO

Mark the placement for the snap on the opposite end of exterior panel, again centered and about 1вЂќ in from the raw edge, folding the tab over to make sure things are aligned neatly. Edgestitch all the way around.ДЄttach the closure tab to the right side of the exterior panel aligning centered and about 1вЂќ in from the raw edge. Fold over ВјвЂќ all the way around and press. Fuse the interfacing to the wrong side of the fabric. Cut a piece of contrasting fabric and a piece of fusible woven interfacing both at 2вЂќ x 4вЂќ. Next, we will create a tab that will fold over to snap our wallet closed. When your exterior panel is quilted, trim it down to 8вЂќ x 4 ВЅвЂќ. You can mark these lines with a chalk pencil or hera marker. Quilt lines about ВѕвЂќ apart across the exterior panel.

Adjust your upper thread tension if necessary.

With your stitch set up, you can get to quilting! When you first begin a row with this stitch, it may take a couple stitches to get that bobbin thread pulled up and visible. This stitch requires such a high tension because what it does is the monofilament top thread will bring the bobbin thread up to the top to imitate the look of hand quilting. You may need to adjust this tension once you get stitching but itвЂ™s a good place to start. Select stitch #1304, the hand-look quilting stitch, increase the stitch length to 3.5 mm and increase your upper thread tension to 8. Monofilament threads are commonly made of either polyester or nylon-polyester is better for our application here because it is stronger than nylon and will withstand the tension required for this stitching! Wind a bobbin with 28 wt thread and thread the needle with polyester monofilament thread. Attach the Three-sole walking foot #50 to your machine. As with any quilt, make sure your batting is larger than your quilt top and your backing is larger than the batting. Since our finished and trimmed panel will be 8вЂќ x 4 ВЅвЂќ, we will quilt a small panel at approximately 9вЂќ x 6вЂќ.

We want to quilt a panel larger than our finished size so that we can trim down to fit. Our first step is to prepare a tiny quilt sandwich for our quilted exterior panel.
