I am test sewing it on some cutaway and I am having trouble with loose tie ins. The stitches are not tight at all at the start, after a trim, or after a thread break. The bobbin passes the drop test for tension. I have set the actifeed to 2. Machine is set at 900 spm. Also I would most of the letters are being trimmed after each letter except for a few. The size of the lettering is small so I don't want to have to cut any jump stitches. Is there a way to insert trims without converting everything to wire frame? Thanks for your help. Can you tell I have very little experience? lol Bruce =========================================================== The AmayaUsers Mailing List Website: http://www.amayausers.com Discussion Board: http://www.amayausers.com/boards Subscribe/Unsubscribe: http://www.amayausers.com/list ===========================================================
