Clasp Stitch
A popular method to hand quilt multiple layers of a quilt
is a method called hand tying. Using the clasp stitch can
simulate the hand stitch and speed up the process usually
done by hand.

Thread tension: 3-6

Position foot where stitch pattern needs to go. Lower
the presser foot and start sewing. The machine will
automatically stop after sewing one clasp stitch.
Raise the presser foot and move the fabric to the next
position.
Appliqué
Quilts are often embellished by adding appliqué. Although
applique is commonly done with a satin stitch, another
popular stitch type to use is a blanket stitch.

Stitch pattern: 33 (Mode 2)
Thread tension: 1-4

The open toe satin stitch foot F-2 offers better visibility
when moving around an appliqué.
Place an applique on the fabric and baste it in place or use
a fusible web to secure the applique in place.
Position the foot so that the needle falls off the edge of the
applique when the needle swings to the right.
