5753Okay, I have a basting stitch on my machine, but I have never used it without the item being hooped...How do you make sure it is lined up correctly? I would love to do towels this way, do you use spray to hold it down till you get it on the machine? Great job by the way... Peggy

28916Beautiful T. I always use basting stitch and never hoop my dsigns. **4U
26316Very pretty. Love your choice of colors. I use basting stitches for almost everything. With the arthritis in my hands, it is too difficult to hoop.
4828Do you need the basting stitches moved closer to your hoop? Just email me which size hoop it was and how much room you had left between the stitches and the hoop.
Sometimes you can get as close as .25" but since all machines are different I tend to err on the side of caution. :-)
Other than that I am really glad you found them helpful.
hugs n blessings, Meganne

25533Tanuja, very nice work and great picture of the use of the basting stitch - can't wait to see once you remove the stitching and the topping and see your towel with that CUTE alpha 'T' on it. Great job - *4U
