1. To keep your machine in good wor king order, be sure to clean it often. Flannels crea te lint!

2. Use a longer stitch leng th to help prevent stretching. Try using a 3 instead of a 2.5.

3. Change your need le often. We reco mmend using a Jeans and Denim need le 80/1 2 or 70/30. Order a pack when you order your flannel quilt kit. You will be glad you did.

4. Press often. Try Best Press spray star ch. It will improve your cutting and reduce fray ing.
