I try to pull up enough to bury in the quilt as if I were starting a hand quilted project. Then continue on with my machine quilting. Wrap the thread 3 times around the needle, pull to the end of the thread, then put needle in and pull the know thru.

do you just put it on a sewing needle and stitch it to the top?
