    Quilting
    No one really knows when quilting began. Many 
    Eu ro pe an immigrants brought the technique to 
    Ame ri ca where patchwork quilting fl ourished.
    The English aristocracy pieced scraps of ele gant 
    fabrics with beautiful hand embroidery for 
    Cra zy Quilting. Quilts were functional and com-
    memorative. 
    Today we quilt with our Husqvarna Viking to 
    create beautiful quilts and quilted garments in a 
    fraction of the time.
    Quilting and piecing quilts
    Your Husqvarna Viking Designer I will sew 
    beautiful and functional quilting techniques 
    quickly and easily. 
    Piecing
    Stitch blocks together quickly and easily with 
    the pre-programmed scant 1/4" (6 mm) quilter’s 
    piecing stitch.
    Fabric: Woven medium cut in two
    Touch:  Menu E, Quilt Stitches, Stitch E1. 
    Snap on: Presser foot A as recommended
    Sew:
    •  Stitch the two fabric pieces with the edges 
    along the edge of the A foot. Quilters call this 
    piecing the quilt block.
    Tip: Snap on the optional Edge Stitching acces-
    sory foot with the fl ange on the right side. The 
    edge of the fabric is guided by the fl ange.
    Decorative stitch tie Quilting
    Tie a quilt with a single decorative stitch. 
    Touch: Menu E, Quilting Stitches, stitch E15 and

    (25 mm) apart to “tie” the quilt sample.

    Crazy Quilting
    Traditionally crazy quilting was stitched by hand. 
    Today your Husqvarna Viking Designer I sewing 
    machine sews the same stitches in a fraction of 
    the time. 
    Touch: Menu E, Quilting Stitches, Stitch E21.
    Snap on: Presser foot B or the transparent foot.
    Sew: 
    •  Stitch randomly on sample fabric. 
    •  Touch E15, E17, and/or E20 or the stitches of 
    your choice and sew additional styles of crazy 
    quilt stitches on the sample fabric.
    Designer I Sensor Foot Pressure makes quilting 
    easy.
    Hand-look Quilting
    Simulate the look of the hand quilting stitch with 
    invisible thread and a special computer stitch.
    Touch: Menu E, Quilting Stitches, Stitch E2.
    Snap on: Presser foot P as recommended.
    •  Thread the needle with clear invisible thread 
    and the bobbin with a color of thread that co-
    ordinates with your fabric.
    Sew:
    •  Stitch along one of the marked rows on your 
    sample fabric. The inner edge of the presser 
    foot P is 1/8’’(3mm), the outer edges is 1/4" 
    (6 mm).
    Note: When sewing the hand-look quilting stitch E2, 
    the re sult depends on what fabric, batting and 
    thread you are using. The thread ten sion is set for 
    se wing a quilt using cotton fa bric, cot ton bat ting and 
    40 weight thread in the bob bin and in vi sible thread 
    on top. When se wing a quilt using oth er fa brics/
    bat tings/th reads, be sure to try the stitch on a sam ple 
    fi rst. Set the thread ten sion in   
     menu as needed 
    for your project.
