I try to do my videos like I'm talking to one of my friends. I find this is easier for most to learn from than a more "scripted" format.

What stitch length do you use and what is your tension set at? Also, what needle size and weight/type of thread do you use? I have the Jazz 2 and am very new to quilting so I appreciate your helpful videos.

All of these questions are very user and machine dependent. I started out on the original Cutie frame with the Jazz II. These were the settings that worked best for me (also, what I used when table quilting): Presser foot tension: 0 Upper tension: 8 or 9 Bobbin tension: set by hand method where the bobbin stands in your hand while thread pulls freely Stitch length: 0 Stitch width: 0 I use a topstitch needle for quilting and a quilting needle for piecing. Normally my thread is a 40 wt, so I start with a 90/14 sz and may adjust to a 100/16 sz. My preferred thread is glide, but on my Jazz II, I often used Coats and Clark quilting thread. I hope this answers all of your questions. You may find joining the Cutie Quilters helpful, if you have a Cutie/Cutie Breeze or other hoop frame. facebook.com/share/hybxeyg1fcVDuBJb/?mibextid=A7sQZp

love your videos! thank you so much!! Quick question, will the Mini Clips or curls work with the original cutie? Those back elastics are the bane of my quilting! lol Thanks again for all you do!!

The Mini Clips would slip over the original Cutie blue clips, but only for small quilts. Perhaps both the blue and larger pink mini clips as the bulk increased?

Do you need to put a larger back on the quilt? Do you baste or pin the quilt?

Typically, you want enough backing to be able to load your work area (top) in the quilt area. You can do this using extra backing or pinning to a leader cloth. I advise new Cutie (Cutie Breeze) owners to start out preparing their quilt sandwiches just as they previously did (hand basted, pin basted or spray basted) until they become comfortable with the frame and hooping. After that comfort is reached, they will naturally use less and less basting, until they reach the point where they are most comfortable on the frame. Myself, I pin the outer corners and about every 2 or 3 feet for my larger projects. I don't feel I need much pin basting at all...I only use the basting to feel I don't have to worry about shifting during rehooping.
