I've tried all sorts of threads, but Superior are my favourite. Thanks for suggesting the combination, as I've been very unsure what might be best. I'll try that size of needle too - I think I have a different one at the moment.
You may see my post appear in the Janome forum!
Thankyou for all your help - I'll report back!
You're welcome and good luck! I love my Janome and have heard others say that they can be thread and needle snobs, so I almost exclusively use Schmetz and Superior - however, when I'm thread painting on an art quilt for eg, I sometimes chuck in any old poly or rayon that's laying around just because it's the colour I want and no problem! I really hope you get it sorted - I feel your frustration! Can you go into a dealership or to a quilt show at one point and have an FMQ on a different machine? That would reassure you that it wasn't YOU? :-D
