embroidery designs, shade or accent fabric motifs, and couch
decorative fibers. Experiment with bobbinwork and other free-motion
techniques to create stunning fabric embellishments.
Trace or draw leaf shape (1) on fabric. Layer fabric and batting to
create a “quilt sandwich.” Thread machine with King Tut in the needle
and Bottom Line in the bobbin. Place fabric under the BSR foot.
Select straight stitch and preferred mode. Stitch the leaf shape,
tracing lines several times (2).
Select zigzag stitch and preferred mode. Shade the left side of the
leaf (3).
Experiment with different stitch lengths and widths, making note
of your preferences.
