That really surprises me. I have a bernina 440 qe and it worked fine with 505. But I was doing free motion with my BSR. What type of quilting were you doing. It could be that if I look closer my stitches won't be totally even and I just didn't notice since my quilting isn't the uniform type. I would really like to know. I am doing my next quilt with hand or pin basting just to try the difference and see.
