Debbie,
Here's a tid bit... Have some of your needles on your Amaya ball point
and some of them sharps. Know in your own mind which ones they are so that
when you need to sew with an appropriate needle, all you have to do is
change out the spool of thread which takes me about 8 seconds and is easy as
pie.
Just a suggestion.
Say, does everyone on the list know how to tie a knot when changing out
spools of thread so that the knot goes through any size needle??? I'll tell
you if you want to know.... Any takers???

You know I will...NEXT TIME...LOL!!! I under-charged this first time, but
after I realized HOW HARD they are to hoop up and then you must change all
your ball point needles over to sharps and then back again...WELL, I learned
the hard way!!!! MERRY CHRISTMAS, Ed!!

Great to hear Debbie.
Now go out there and charge them an arm and a leg for all your hard
work. Heh- heh.

Just wanted to say that the Carharts are DONE!!!!! YEA!!!! Since
they were on the front chest, I was not able to take out a seam and was
forced to hoop through all layers. One of the jackets had a heavy polar
type fleece lining and the others had flannel like quilted linings. After
placing the top hoop over the inside hoop, I used a short screwdriver to
tighten the bolt a little then adjust the hoop a little ( to keep it from
popping off) and go through those same steps until it wouldn't tighten
anymore. I had a 3oz cutaway for backing, no topping and used an MT of 9,
but after several false breaks, dropped it to 7 and it stitched beautifully
at a speed of 1150. The design and logo were about 10,000 stitches and so
only needed the 5.9mm round hoop. AFter dropping the MT, they all stitched
without one break. It was a purchased design consisting of a barn, silo,
tree, fense, tractor sun and cloud outline, plus the placid font, which was
in my older Viking software. The font was GREAT. So, all's well that ends
well!!!!!!! THANKS for all your help. DEBBIE

Thanks everyone, since I'm new to doing caps, that answers my
question and especially since they are black, the powered sugar shows more.

Ruth,
Two things,... Either it's bobbin showing up on the top side
of the cap...-- tighten your bobbin and increase your material thickness to
accommodate.
or
It's the buckram that is showing itself in all of the needle
penetrations. Buckram is the hot glue like substance that is used in the
cap for face stability. We sometimes have to hit the cap with a felt lint
brush to "clean up" the face of the cap following the embroidery.
If your so called "dandruff" in only concentrated in one area
of the cap or design, then you will either need to change the settings in
the software or have the design edited for caps. Would have to see it to be
sure.
Is there another term we can use other than dandruff? How
about something like "powered sugar". Yeah, in the holiday spirit.
Ed

Hello Everyone,
I am doing caps and it looks like dandrift falling on my caps.
They are black caps. I've never known this to happen before or else I just
never saw it like it shows up on black. Anyone know about this?
