I love this board! I was just obsessing about the same problem this afternoon and no matter how I tried I couldn't keep the darker thread from showing on the back just a teeny bit. It hadn't occurred to me that washing and drying the finished quilt will probably make it all go away! Thanks everyone!

I am new at FM machine quilting having quilted by hand for the last 25 years. I am quilting a border and I am using blue thread for the top and white for the bobbin so that my horrible quilting doesn't jump up. Problem is that try as I may to fix the tensions a tiny blue thread shows up on the reverse on every stitch, is this normal? Please advise before I take it apart one more time. Thanks for the help!

The info that came with my Tin Lizzie says it is almost impossible to have a perfectly balanced stitch and they recommend using same color top & bobbin. Even professional quilters have this problem when using different threads. Some of them will "color" the little dots with a fabric pen if it's a show quilt
