Hi All! New to here and new to stippling, sooo, have a problem. I am trying to learn how to do stippling and I am having a problem with my needles breaking. I know it is me and not my machine, so what am I doing wrong? I drop my feed dogs, put on the open presser foot, have tried slower and have tried faster speeds when moving the test piece. By the 'hits' on my plate it looks like the needle is hitting to the front of the plate. So far I have gone thru about 7-8 needles. I may be your first 'lost cause'! LOL
