If someone has a Juki TL2000Qi, UPDATE
#1
This is only the second time I have used my Juki TL2000Qi and now it keeps doing the birds nest with the top thread on the back of what I am sewing.
I have tried the tension in every way possible with the bobbin and top thread.
If I have to take the plate off one more time to clean out the ball of thread, I will pull my hair out. :thumbdown:
Please help! :-(

Ok- This sounds stupid, but if you are FMQing- make sure the presser foot is down. I actually called the company in tears before figuring out that that was my error.....
(If you are not as dumb as me, I apologize.)

If Hazeljane's idea doesn't work, make sure your feed dogs are down. Also, have you seen the Magic Bobbin Washers? Leah Day, a popular free motion quilter, said she couldn't work without these. They are supposed to end the thread loops and birds' nests on the bottom side of your quilt. Take a look at this site. http://daystyledesigns.com/magicgeniewashers.htm
I bought some for my machine but haven't had a chance to try them...my machine is in for repairs. Good luck to you!
