I have a design that is almost 30K stitches that was sewing well until I added a fill as a background. I have sewn it twice. Both times, at different places and with differenct colors (needles) the top of the design looks like the bobbin ran out and the bottom looks like a nesting problem. The first time, it was on small lettering and the thread broke. The second time, at a place and needle before the first time, on an average size column, I had a similar problem, but the thread did not break. The problem continued until a trim, then it continued with the same needle with a similar column with no problem. The small lettering that was the problem in the first occurance was perfect! The material is a fleece blanket with mid to heavy cutaway backing. I am stuck! Thanks for any suggestions. David Sklar Ballyhoo!
