Are you adjusting the presser foot height if changing the needle plate? Are you using poly thread? Are you using #12 SHARP needles instead of ball points? Are you adjusting bobbin thread tension? Are you using at least two layers of hat backing for an unstructured cap, one for a structured? I was taught to turn off bobbin thread detect, and just check the bobbin between hats, and change when it's getting toward the end. =========================================================== The AmayaUsers Mailing List Website: http://www.amayausers.com Discussion Board: http://www.amayausers.com/boards Subscribe/Unsubscribe: http://www.amayausers.com/list ===========================================================
