I had a Bravo machine but I just traded it in and now have a new Amaya XTS. I've been embroidering just some regular size satin stitched letters and I keep getting upper thread breakage when using a rayon thread. I do the same exact thing (same item, same needle, etc.) with a poly thread, and it stitches fine. I've been embroidering for years on a Brother PR-620 and I've never come across breakage just because it's rayon thread. Is there something I should adjust to compensate for using rayon over polyester? I know rayon is not as strong as poly and shreads easier, but I don't know how to compensate for this on the XTS. Appreciate any input. =========================================================== The AmayaUsers Mailing List Website: http://www.amayausers.com Discussion Board: http://www.amayausers.com/boards Subscribe/Unsubscribe: http://www.amayausers.com/list ===========================================================
