HELP !!!!!
#48
I had a major tension problem with that pinwheel quilt entered in Joannes. Wound up adding a layer of muslin between the batting and the backing fabric, changing to Microtex needles and using Sulky clear thread on the bobbin, with YLI on the top. Sometimes you just have to try different combinations. and try, and try, and try.....

Have you tried sewing on a quilt sandwich with a different fabric? Could it just be the combination of fabric & batt that you are using this time? If it persists I say take it to the repair shop. It could be a thread stuck somewhere you can't see it & I know from experience that can ruin your machine if it's digital.

I hear that. I was trying to LAQ yesterday and the threads were breaking like crazy. I pulled out the new needle I had just inserted and it actually had a burr on the tip. Threw that out and put in new needle...better- but not there yet. Then took out the bobbin, turned it around and reinserted it..success at last! That needle was horrible? Do you have your needle in correctly! Mine will only let you put the needle in one way. Do hope you get your's working soon.
