I have recently fallen in LOVE with rulerwork quilting, and being able to quilt my ruler designs while couching cords for an added decorative touch, BAM! Nothing like also adding an extra level of challenge for myself and thinking outside the box. After a small hunt for them in my sewing room, I decided that I would give free-motion rulerwork/couching a try! Then I remembered that I had the Couching Inserts for my Adjustable Ruler foot #72. Trying to think of something outside the box and creative to do, I came across my new quilting rulers by Amanda Murphy. WOW! Diving deeper into the couching techniques, I also learned that we can successfully stitch double couching, double and triple needle couching, flat couching, and free motion couching.įree-motion couching was what caught my attention. When I was asked to do a blog post on couching, I pulled out my BERNINA Big Book of Feet and discovered that BERNINA has 13 different presser feet that you can use to do couching techniques. When couching threads contrast with laid threads, patterns may be worked in the couching stitches.Ĭouching can be done by hand or machine, providing beautiful texture, or a secondary design to fabrics.
The couching threads may be either the same color as the laid threads or a contrasting color. What is couching? According to the Webster Dictionary the following is the definition of couching:Ĭouching – In embroidery, couching and laid work are techniques in which yarn or other materials are laid across the surface of the ground fabric and fastened in place with small stitches of the same or a different yarn.
