I just got this machine this past fall, although I had the usual 'lessons' I cant remember how to do most of the things they showed us.
What stitch number # the blanket stitch do you use?? Do you adjust anything?

That's the one I have too and I"ve done a lot of quilts appliqued with the blanket stitch. Love it!!

Good morning,
I have a Janome 6260; the blanket stitching is wonderful. I use it often. It looks like it might be out of your price range, but if you found one for sale, might be worth it. I like to use it with varigated thread on some of my smaller pieces. Pumpkin12

I use stitch #45....stitch length 2.7........stitch width 2.5.

If I want a heavier look.......I use #59.......stitch length 3.0.......stitch width 3.4. Hope this helps!

My Pfaff's all have the blanket stitch and sew beautifully.

My older Viking also had it but it is a my ministers' home being used there.

Thanks so much for the info...I will never remember all the stuff that machine does, I havent even been to the part about how to embroider....my pee brain cant absorb much anymore !!!
I was thinking about calling the store again and see if I could sit in on another class and not take the machine just be there to write things down step by step.

My Brother has a couple blanket stitches and it automatically adjusts to either one. I just adjust the stitch length

I have a Pfaff QE, it has a very nice blanket stitch and the stitch is reversable.
