The design is fine because I've done it hundreds of time previously. I'm using a FastFrame with sticky back (the good kind), and have my auto lower limit to 15 (which is where is seems to hover). Any suggestions for what else I may check? This is problematic only in this type of hoop setup. Machine sews everything else fine. The thread just seems to pull out from the needle giving me a thread break. Thread is not shredding or anything to that effect. Can't seem to get the tension settings right. Tried standard and the same thing happens. Better in auto... =========================================================== The AmayaUsers Mailing List Website: http://www.amayausers.com Discussion Board: http://www.amayausers.com/boards Subscribe/Unsubscribe: http://www.amayausers.com/list ===========================================================
