Hello everyone! Recently I was on another site and heard on the video that you must "Pop" your thread inside your quilt sandwich when machine quilting..... I know how to achieve this when hand quilting....not getting how to do it on the machine though???? Any takers on trying to talk me thru it?
Thanks!

I just did a search and read this article

http://www.dummies.com/how-to/conten...nd-tricks.html

i dont' really know anyone who feels this is necessary but all you have to do is bring the bobbin thread to the top with the top thread, thread them both onto a needle then just make a tiny stitch right next to the hole the threads came out of and bury them into your batting.

Thank you both! Very helpful....that Dummy book could have been written just for me!

We all learn from each other, anytime you have a ? please post a note, that is how we all learn

I just found this video and click on the 2nd video and you can see it better

Hi,

I just sent you a private message

I just found a video for you to watch and I created a new thread on the board

http://www.quiltingboard.com/t-50878-1.htm

If I ever make an Hierloom quilt I might go to this trouble but for a utility quilt I don't think I would.

thank you for the site and God bless. Penny

Wow, that's new to me. I'm going to try that. Thanks.

I always do this. On all everything. But I have a little trick to add to it. I have an 18 year old daughter. LOL I make her do it with me. Tricks her in to having to spend time with me without her 3rd hand (cell phone :) )

She isn't very fast at it, but she does it and I enjoy the time. At her age, we argue quite a bit, and it is so peacefule sitting together. She still thinks quilting is a "grandma thing'" She's such a turkey! LOL

I always bring my bottom thread to the top when I start quilting but was unaware how to finish them. I always just cut them off. Thank you all so much for this info. This board is so informative and helpful.
