I have a fsl design that has metallic thread being used as small flower 
outlines.  I can sew it ok on my voyager but my amaya doesn't care at all for 
it.  I have tried different backing, giving up on the vilene for the amaya and 
going to a 2 piece backing of mesh, changed the needle and I still get maybe 3 
stitches and then the thread breaks.  It is slowed down to 800, pressure foot 
all the way down, 80/12 needle, so my conclusion is that maybe I need to change 
the density for the amaya.  Its already set to 11.7.  Any suggestions as to 
what to change it to?  Thanks,Cheryl K.
