I did not use a stabilizer, nor a hoop. Just be cognizant of the tension of your stitches.

Originally posted by NanaPieMargo, I watched the show you referenced on a stitch sampler a few minutes ago. I also watched I think a Sue Nickels/Pat Holly CD long ago that showed each stitch sewn lengthwise on the back of a business card, sewn in red thread, with the stitch number written on the card. Then the business cards were inserted in to a business card holder that had plastic pages that you could insert eight or ten cards to a page. (Do they make those anymore????) At any rate, I have an old card holder and the business cards I had leftover from when I retired a few years ago - I think I'll give that a whirl. I hadn't thought of it again until I looked at the show you mentioned. Thanks for sending me in that direction!

My 830 is still in the shop for maintenance, so I can't tell you what stitch it is, however, if you hit the "question" mark and any blanket stitch, you should get an explanation of which blanket stitch it is. Don't forget, the quilting related stitches are not in the decorative stitch menu. There is an icon on your screen for quilting-related stitches and that particular blanket stitch is probably there.

Found it! On the 830, the double blanket stitch is found in the Quilt Stitches' section, number 1330 and 1345. I still haven't found the stitch that Janet and Ricky recommend though, which doubles the running stitch but only has a single stitch for the 'jog'. Anyone know? Thanks!
Baby it's cold here in Maine! Perfect quilting weather! Diana

Checked on my 830 and the other blanket stitches are in the decorative stitch section. 720 and 754
I think they are the half blanket stitch and one is the reverse. Half meaning two on the side and one bite into the fabric (hope that makes sense).
I think I will use those on the stars, but I believe Janet used the double for the letters on her show. 1330 on the 830.

Originally posted by RicaWilI did the standard blanket stitch on my 2013 BOM. For this 2014 BOM I actually took Janet's advice and watched Ricky's show 804. He showed a much nicer stitch on the Bernina. Well unfortunately I don't own a high end Bernina, mine is a Husqvarna Topaz. So I got out my book and the stitch guide, and guess what? Mine has a fancier blanket stitch. It is stitch 2:20 and has default settings of length 3 and width 3. I like to use a length of 4 instead.
Got me thinking, what machines are the rest of you using? And if not Bernina, have you found a fancier blanket stitch? This is info we should share!
Make notations of the type of stabilizer you use. I used a pigma pen to write my info out.
