This is soooo helpful! I don’t have a blanket stitch on my machine, I had no idea you could achieve the same results with the button hole stitch! I found your video after someone mentioned looking up “ mock blanket stitch “ I hope I can get this to work on my older Bernina. Ty for the wonderful recommendation on threads too!
