    Default Serpentine stitch Pfaff 1473

    I would like to use the serpentine stitch on a quilt I'm making, but it doesn't seem like the 1473 has that one. Any way to imitate it with a zig zag? If so, what settings do you use? I'm playing around with it, but haven't hit something I like yet. Thanks!

    There is a multiple stitch zigzag - 13a - that is about as close to a built-in serpentine stitch that is available on that machine.

    I think that machine is "programmable" - but I don't know how to do it.

    Thanks for the reply. I'm using 13b, width of 5.0, length 4.5. It's close enough for what I'm doing.

    Have you got the designer unit?

    I made a serpentine on the 1475 using the heart design. The curve that goes with it is on the center. Once you remove the heart and save the curve, you can reverse the curve and get a serpentine.
