Sounds like you have quite a machine there, glad you were able to figure out the problem. When I first got my Memory Craft 4000, many years ago, there were all these embroidery stitches that I had to try, it was so much fun. I used them to quilt 2 baby quilts for our next door neighbors when their twins were born, and they loved them - I used a pink gingham border for Madison and a blue gingham borders for Noah. I used a very simple pattern, took a 4-5" muslin square, used the snow ball technique on 2 sides - when the blocks came together they made 4 triangles in the different fabrics, then I bought lots of Rayon thread, in all colors and variegated threads, then used an embroidery stitch around the 4 triangles. It was a simple, but adorable quilt for those 2 precious babies who were our "grandchildren" until we finally got our Zoe, but I still have great memories of them, and their parents.
