When I use the stabilizer with the blanket stitch, it seems really hard to pull away. Is there an easier way to do this?
|
Oh Barb go ahead and dive into embroidery, it's so wonderful what comes out of your machine. :)

My Bernina has a couple of different blanket stitches to applique with and it also has the satin stitch. I usually applique by hand...I just like it and I need the practice.
Yes, the embroidery is worth just diving into. I did my first tunic top this week...loads of fun and it even turned out pretty nice! |
Best to use a wash away so you don't rip the stitches. Aqua mesh or solvy are great

I have been looking for something cheap that has a buttonhole stitch,like a Janome. I would love the Diamond but can't justify spending 10 grand for it. |
Any of the viking computerized machines have the buttonhole stitch. Vikings are heavy duty and you get free training with your machine. hope you have a dealer near you. I would love a diamond too but I am happy with my Designer 1. Lots of people are trading their machines in to upgrade. Watch for a used machine, you might find a great deal.
