Default Here's the Serpentine stitch

To clarify what this stitch looks like per the discussion under another thread, I stitched out an example . My machine is the Janome 9900. It is a 9 mm machine . I use this stitch to quilt small projects. Cross hatching looks amazing.

That is an interesting stitch for quilting. I like the fact that you included the machine settings relative to the little ruler. I think I am going to have to try that.

Try this. I stitched this quickly....I would normally space the rows evenly.

Nicely done. I tried for a half an hour to get it to work on my Bernina 1530 using the instructions that Tartan had previously posted but could not get it to smooth out the curves.

I often use the (wave)serpentine stitch. I use it on boarders and baby quilts. It's easy and adds a bit of whimsy to the quilt.

I have a Bernina 1260 so don't know if this will translate to your Bernina, but I use Stitch #3, Width 5 and Length 2.5 to get this:

Thanks for sharing. I've heard people mention it but I wasn't sure exactly what it was.
