      Did you sew your birdhouse down first and then put the roof and pole down?

      To day I tried setting up my machine to applique... changing the blanket stitch....I use a 880 Bernina. I could not get a good stitch, pulled to the right. I decided to rewatch Alex's lesson, (even though I had written every thing down. I noticed on her 700 machine there is only ONE balance adjustment, but the 880 has TWO. I reworked that using only my lower knob and it worked out great. Also, my machine only would let me use the 1C foot. I tried about 3 and that was the only one that would work. Looking forward to stitching.
