Hi all, I finally got around to testing the auto actifeed on the striped
chenille and
thought some of y'all might be interested in the results. Using a script with
the name
"Bristol", at 5.5" wide and 2.1" tall, edge walk and zigzag, column width 110%,
5400
stitches. I used one layer solvy on top to keep the loops smushed down and 1
layer
cutaway (or 2 layers tearaway). Hooped it as usual. No thread breaks or
looping, I
noticed the thread feed go from 3 to as high as 12. One thing I wondered about
is I don't
see any bobbin thread on back, should I loosen it slightly or leave as is? I
know someone
has mentioned the ideal tension for the auto actifeed, but I didn't save the
info. Herman
taught me to keep it like a slow spider walk so I left it like that. Do y'all
think that
is ok? It looks pretty, LOL! Only problem I see is that the lettering is
pretty big, but
it seems that if it's any smaller it will get lost in the pile/nap of the
fabric. Have a
great night! I'm going back to watching Sci-Fi! Edna
