Hi,
I set my Babylock machines stitch to 6.0 and it's a scant 1/4 inch, and after you press your seam to one side it's a perfect 1/4 inch. I sew all my quilts with that setting and have all my machines set like that. My dealer had me do it. Hope that helps. Bev |
Thank you all so much, Your answers are really useful.

as someone said its a thread or 2 width less than a 1/4 inch.
i prefer to put those 2 threads into my rotary cutting instead of worrying about sewing just shy. the 1/4 inch foot that came with my machine is perfectly a 1/4 inch so why mess with perfection when i can just add those threads into my cutting and sew the 1/4 inch. so if you want to cut a 2.5 inch strip of fabric cut it at 2.5 inches and 2 threads. |
Thank you. Do you measure from your needle to the edge of the 1/4 inch foot outer edge?
