The machine is a Big Red(built? but I'm thinking early 2005) Design Shop and OS are both version 7.00.018 I was using a lower setting when I stitched the sample of the first design, all column stitch lettering(one I digitized myself) and it seemed tight when I set it any lower. If I get some time this afternoon I might rerun the Grand Slam design on some scrap fleece and see if the lower setting makes a difference. Thanks.
