The current project is done on quilter's cotton. I'm using a stock design. I have reduced the density and added underlay. I have increased the stabilizer, added a hooping blanket and changed the thread feed to standard and raised the number to 6. I have NOT stood on my head and whistled "Dixie", but if I thought it would help.... you get the idea. Is this a common problem with this hoop? I have 2 of them and I seem to have trouble more often than not. I'd love to hear other's experiences.... and solutions, if you have them.
