Here is the message that has just been posted:
***************
What I remember about thread breaks: If your bobbin thread is breaking, your
top thread is messed up. If your top thread is messed up, it could be the
bobbin. Check bobbin tension. Floss bobbin case. Replace bobbin. Replace
bobbin case. Clean and oil the hook.
Is it breaking or shredding? Breaking is a tension issue, shredding is the eye
of the needle.
Are your needles properly alligned (eye turned ever so slightly to the right,
not straight ahead or to the left?
Are your needles old? The eyes can get burrs.
Is it all needles or just one?
Is it the thread? Poly runs better than rayon.
Are you using embroidery thread, not sewing thread?
Are you using enough backing? The lighter the fabric, the heavier the backing
needs to be.
Is it hooped tightly? A not-tight hooping will up the thread break count.
Lots of stuff to check, and these are just the ones I think of off of the top
of my head.
