[amayausers] Re: More Satin Help Please

We do very large designs (over 70,000 stitches) on white satin jackets and
have no problems whatsoever.  We use rubber shelf lining strips in  the
corners of our jacketback hoop just to maintain a good tight hooping.  We
also use a new, sharp needle.  We use mostly Metallic threads on that
particular jacket as well.  Be sure your hoop is either wrapped in ribbon or
some type of tape is helpful too. (However, ours aren't).
