Posts On: June 24, 2015Celebrating the 10th Anniversary of the BSR (BERNINA Stitch Regulator). Kick free-motion stitching up a notch by using a zigzag stitch.
Machine quilting with the BSR is no different than any regular free-motion quilting in regard to the types of threads or needles that can be used. As with any free-motion quilting, larger size threads need larger needles and smaller threads are best with smaller size needles. Many quilters prefer sharps or topstitch needles for piecing and quilting. Some quilters love to use cotton threads for quilting and others enjoy polyester threads. These choices are up to the maker and it is always recommended to experiment with a variety of threads until you determine which look/style you like best.
In this video, Nina uses a zig-zag stitch. It really doesn’t matter what size of stitch width — that is a personal preference. Make samples with a wide stitch and make samples with a medium or small width to get the desired effect for your project. There is no one right answer as to what thread, needle, or stitch width to use when using the BSR for free-motion zig-zag stitching. The important thing with the BSR is to set your stitch length, which doesn’t usually matter for free-motion quilting. The BSR regulates the speed of the needle based on the desired stitch length, so making an adjustment to your preferred stitch length is required. To learn more about using the BSR with free-motion zig-zag, visit your local BERNINA dealer today!
