I am a machine quilting enthusiast - home machine, not longarm - who DOES NOT want to hand tie off threads at the end of a section of stitching. By bringing up the bobbin thread, the back looks good where the stitching starts, but when I reach the end, I am not able to get as good a result. Does anyone have any suggestions on the best way to end the stitching so that the back of the quilt looks tidier? BTW - I have a Bernina machine with a stitch regulator. Thanks for the help in advance!
-
At the end of the stitching, use the long-arm technique of taking a few short stitches, then pull the work several inches away from the needle, then return to the same spot, take one stitch and pull up the bobbin thread, clip the threads.
If you are doing show quality quilts, you may want to bury the threads for the most inconspicuous finish.

I use this method. It looks good even for show quality once you get the knack of it.
