Greetings,

This is a question for machine quilters: When you start quilting, what do you do with the thread tails, how do you secure them and how long do you cut them off? Ditto when you stop quilting.

For example, do you bring the bobbin thread up before you have the machine "knot it" (forgot the technical term) or tack it a stitch or two and you cut it off all the way down to the fabric; then you do the same for the end of the quilting.

Thanks :)
