Thanks Andrée. I'll stop looking. There were times I'd like to remove that lock stitch too.

I think Janet said here somewhere that she quilts on a Janome. I'm wondering if my Janome Horizon has a pattern begin button and can't find the answer in my manual. Does anybody know?

Don't be hesitant to ask questions! this is a great group.

Thanks Susan
I checked my manual and now I can't wait to try it out.

Laynie, check your owner's manual. The icon has changed over the years. On my elderly 1230, it's a dashed semi-circle with an arrow at the top. On my 730 Artista, it's a right triangle with a hyphen at the top. Both owner's manuals call it Pattern Begin.

It's a great function!

Show 1401 with Janet Stone
Janet is showing Ricky how to machine applique the letter f with double blanket stitch.
She keeps referring back to the "Magic Button" on the Bernina to prevent build up of
stitches on the corners. Ricky called the "Magic Button" "Pattern Begin".
I, now, have 3 different Berninas and I haven't a clue what button they are talking about.
Can you please help me?
Thanks so much.
