It was used last a just a sewing machine so I need to change out the foot and get everything set up for quilting along with attaching the cruise control.
Now that I have gotten all the covered my ?;s are:
1) Should I pin my quilt on the liters or bast them on?
2) If I want to quilt something that does not have a continues pattern how do I lock my stitches before I cut to go to the next block?
3)My table has a adjustment up and down. How close to the floor of my machine do I want to set it? The lower I go it seems like I will not have no roll up space to quilt anything with size to it.
I attached 2 pictures so you could see what I am talking about.
Hey!!!! That's MY machine I am waiting for. I got the floor model and am just waiting for the frame to arrive. Am hoping it arrives today! I am sooooo jealous. I am sure I will have the same questions. Were you able to do it all by yourself? I don't have anyone here to help me so hopefully it is a one-person job. My dealer said she could come out and give me a lesson once I have it all set up. Lucky you :!: :hunf:
