Here are the stitch-outs, and time taken<br />
to stitch, for the four different utility<br />
stitches. As you can see we’re getting<br />
faster and faster and I quite like the way<br />
the serpentine stitch looks! I think that<br />
maybe one that I’ll use for quilting!<br />
Now that I’ve picked a fairly simple utility<br />
stitch to use on the baby quilt, I’ll check<br />
out some of the more complex stitches<br />
available on the Dreamweaver XE and<br />
pick a second one to use as well.<br />

possibilities<br />
for quilting<br />
with decorative<br />
stitches<br />
I picked one of these stitches to use for<br />
quilting my baby quilt, but I’d like to<br />
use a more complex design as well. I’m<br />
checking out the character decorative<br />
stitches available on the machine.<br />
After selecting “Sewing” on the main<br />
screen, I press the Character Decorative<br />
Stitch key on the LCD screen of the<br />
Dreamweaver XE to access the many<br />
decorative stitches available.<br />
Dreamweaver XE<br />
There are 7 different sections of<br />
Character Decorative Stitches. I’m<br />
selecting the Section 6 key to access the<br />
first group of decorative stitches.<br />
Section “6”<br />
The Character Decorative Stitch key<br />
As on the utility stitches screen, you can<br />
scroll through the decorative stitches using<br />
the slider on the right side of the screen.<br />
