Quilt the layers together using one or more of
the following suggestions:
Echo quilt around the circles using Leather
Roller Foot #55.
Stitch-in-the-ditch along the outside borders
using Edgestitch Foot #10 (10D for the
BERNINA 830 with BERNINA Dual Feed) or
Walking Foot #50 with the new Center Guide
Sole.
Use the BERNINA Stitch Regulator #42
to stipple quilt around each of the animals
inside the circles.
Stitch the short ends of the five 2½” x width of
fabric strips for the binding together to form one
long strip.
TIP: Cutting and seaming the ends diagonally will
help hide the seams in the binding.
Press the seam allowances open. Fold the long
strip in half with wrong sides together; press.
Stitch the Borders
Use a ¼” seam allowance to stitch the 2½” x
width of fabric top border strip to the top cut edge
of the quilt. The extra length of the border fabric
will allow the border fabric to extend past the
beginning and ending of the stitching.
Press the seam flat and then press the seam
allowances toward the border. Use a ruler and
rotary cutter to trim the ends of the border strip
even with the quilt top.
Repeat to attach the bottom border.
Stitch the three 2½” x width of fabric strips for the
side border together. Cut the strip into two equal
lengths.
TIP: Stitching the ends together with a diagonal
seam will help hide the border seams.
Use a ¼” seam allowance to stitch the strips to
both the right and left cut side edges of the quilt.
Allow the ends of the border strip to extend pass
the beginning and ending of the stitching.
Press the seams flat, then press the seam allow-
ances toward the border.
Stitch the Quilting and Binding
Adhere the wrong side of the fabric backing to the
low loft batting using 505 Temporary Adhesive.
Spray the top of the batting with additional 505
and center the wrong side of the quilt top over the
batting. Further secure the layers by pin-basting
and edgestitching the quilt top to the batting. (The
batting and backing will extend beyond the edges
of the quilt top at the point.)
