BERNINA Quilting In The Hoop

[@suzannedougan4923]

Hi Gail, you were giving me such confidence to actually try the embroidery part of my machine. I just bought a 770 Q plus. Thank you.

[@tinadeatherage3067]

I love watching your tutorials!

[@DD-ek8qc]

Thanks for the idea of using silk thread on the heavily stitched quilt designs and changing tension settings to balance stitches. Great tutorial.

[@joyfedock8750]

I am loving your videos Gayle. Thank you so much for all the information you are putting out there on KZbin showing all the wonderful features our Bernina's can accomplish.

[@stephanieauman1158]

I am waiting for delivery of a QE770 PLUS machine. Wow did I not know how much machine I was buying!!! Can't wait to try this out! Thank You!!!

[@pateannarino3521]

Thank you so much for all the helpful information you provide on embroidery. You are a great resource for a beginner like myself.

[@barbaraburke8736]

Great tutorial with good tip on tension and using the silk thread. I think I’m going to make a quick table runner!

[@lisanorton2439]

I'm really thankful for your brilliantly executed vids. Sooooo helpful!

[@lisawilcox6608]

Thank you, Gayle. I sure do enjoy your videos. I purchased my first Bernina (590) about a month ago and am still learning all of the things it can do. I love the idea of being able to quilt using the embroidery motifs. I think I'll play around with it by doing some mini quilts. By the way, thank you for also giving tips on type of thread to use and different adjustments.

[@ruthdonald7736]

useful technical information - the hands on and careful explanation makes it so easy for me to replicate results at home

[@lonnieanderson4408]

Beautiful! I’m planning on using the quilting designs with my quilt I am working on now. Your video helped me see how to do it. Thank you!

[@deelamb7462]

Thank you for doing this. I have Husqvarna and there aren't nearly the videos as Bernina has.

[@vickijeanne9958]

Love this tutorial! I would love to see end to end hooping!

[@bellfreedme]

I would love to see you do this on an actual large quilt.

[@BERNINAofNaperville]

You read our mind. We are pre-quilting yardage to make table runner and placemats showing edge to edge technique. Video coming in April.

[@CherryBlossomHill]

@@BERNINAofNaperville Is that still in the works?

[@BERNINAofNaperville]

@@CherryBlossomHill we did a small project here but have a specific video we are working on. kzbin.info/www/bejne/hp2zqmiJot6Xb9U

[@alison5072]

Thank you I have my new Bernina 770QE+ all set to go!

[@janiceclick12]

Thank you. I sew garments and am new to quilting and embroidery. I have a 570QE so your video is very helpful

[@lifestylesew]

Interesting, I watch you all the time and love it. You have stabiliser on the back, was it washer a way, if not it is going to show like most embroidery. If I use hooping for quilting, I want to see no stabiliser as its a quilt, people are going to see it. What do you do when you quilt a large piece not just a small piece. How about edge to edge quilting for a large quilt, that is the challenge that most people would like to know how you can achieve that, demonstrating with a large quilt, cant use backing for that. This is not meant to be a negative post, just a question, ok. Thanks G

[@BERNINAofNaperville]

Thank you for watching and for your comment. Like I said in the video, it’s aquamesh stabilizer. It washes away. You would not want to have the stabilizer showing on you quilt. Perhaps this video will answer your other questions.

@@BERNINAofNaperville Thank you so much for the quick response. That totally answers the question. I misheard what you said, silly me. Once again thank you. G

[@user-yu1rk9vg9s]

Thank you for all of your amazing video tutorials. Question regarding aligning multiple rows of design on a quilt. I am using design number 17 on a Bernina 790 Plus. Similar to the design you use here, but it has a start and end for connecting multiple rows. My quilt top is 43 3/4” square, and the quilt design (I combined 3 of the individual designs), is now about 5 3/8” x 15”. How should I go about spacing these and laying them out to cover the top? If I start with my first hooping straight down the center, I end up with a few inches blank on each edge. Many thanks for any suggestions

[@BERNINAofNaperville]

Don’t try to think about the math. Once you’re u do a row, do the next row next to it. I don’t worry about centering the design because at the end of the day quilting is all about adding texture.

[@user-yu1rk9vg9s]

@@BERNINAofNaperville Thank you SO VERY MUCH!!! I will do that and get to quilting tomorrow!!

[@janhaga5297]

Love the bubbles design. Where can I purchase this design please?

Thank you for this video. I just got my new 790 and want to try quilting in the hoop. This video made it seem not so intimidating

[@kimbeckner9240]

Thanks! Now I’m going looking for a cutwork video :)

[@tatyanasurenyan-krech6372]

I tried this without stabilizer and my whole machine got tangled and the thread was caught in the bobbin. When I used a stabilizer, it worked perfectly but I used the tear away a d there is still stabilizer on the back. Im wondering if I should have used that fine thread. I also forgot to set the tension to 4.5. Is that superior thread brand?

[@leighh5435]

Any reason why you did not pull up your bobbin thread. I have the 770 and I'm trying to figure that part out.

[@BERNINAofNaperville]

It’s not necessary

[@sandracurrie6186]

What weight thread are you using in the first quilting in the hoop example with purple and pink thread?

[@BERNINAofNaperville]

50 wt mettler 100% cotton

[@Theothersideofwatashi]

I would love to see this done with a twin or larger quilt. I just find it would be bulky. And how would the slider move?

[@BERNINAofNaperville]

Well, on a twin size you definitely need to use thin batting and prop your quilt up with any table or support you can find. We are currently working on doing an edge to edge in hoop quilting video.

[@peggygibson2894]

Would you quit a full size quilt in the hoop

[@BERNINAofNaperville]

Yes. I have done it. I did not use stabilizer I actually squeezed the quilt in my jumbo hoop only with top, batting and backing but it worked.

[@terigibson6096]

I am new to hooping. Can I hoop a large quilt? Can I put in a design in the middle and then quilt around the design? For example, have a horse centered and then quilt around the horse using a hoop?

[@BERNINAofNaperville]

Teri Gibson yes to all of these things. However, by having a horse in the middle and then quilting around it, if it’s a horse fabric and you want to quilt around it, the BERNINA Stitch regulator would be your best bet. Start easy. Quilt using quilting motif embroideries, see how that goes and then experience my combining techniques.

[@shonawadsworth2445]

Thankyou for your Help , and you also have a voice one can Listen to , very helpful thank Gail .

[@cherylwilliams42]

How do you know proper thread weight to use? Different threads seems like a lot for this vintage person to have to learn.

[@BERNINAofNaperville]

There’s no right of wrong. But some of the designs in the machine for quilting are made a triple torch. For those I use a thin weight like the 100wt silk thread I used in the video. If it is single stitch I use a 50wt.

[@peggygibson2894]

What stabilizer are you using in the 1st demo and why did you not use stabilizer in the 2nd demo

[@BERNINAofNaperville]

In the first demo, I’m using stabilstick tear a way to show what you would use if you didn’t want to try to squeeze the quilt sandwhich in the hoop. In the second demo, I used no stabilizer to show how you can quilt in the hoop with out any stabilizer.

[@peggygibson2894]

BERNINA of Naperville thank you

[@cathj8568]

With the silk thread wht needle did you use

[@BERNINAofNaperville]

Size 75 quilting

[@vickijeanne9958]

Where does it show on this machine how big the quilt pattern is?

[@BERNINAofNaperville]

Hi Vicki, once you select the embroidery design which you want to stitch out, the size will be in millimeters at the bottom left hand side of the touchscreen.

[@vickijeanne9958]

@@BERNINAofNaperville Thank you! I noticed a lot of designs (I looked at the manual) are close to 4-5 inches or so---can you use these designs and mirror them to finish a 10-12" quilt block?

Welche Näh und Stickmaschine ist das bitte?

Die einzige, die ich verwende, ist eine Bernina 770, aber Sie können dies auf jeder Emroideey-Nähmaschinenkombination in der Bernina- oder Bernette-Linie tun.
