My new Baby Lock and I have a love/hate relationship. :?
It's SO sensitive to EVERYTHING!!

For the past several sewing days, the top thread has been breaking. I've read the troubleshooting guide and have done everything in there--and the thread breaks again. It just might take longer to do so. :wink:

I had to switch colors to sew the CW binding--and switch back when I was done, so I decided to switch from Mettlers (which the machine seller said was a great thread!) to Gutermann (which I was told has lost its high quality) and no more breaking!!! :D

I can't figure this machine out--I must learn what makes it happy and stick to that--I'm tired of having too much of the wrong thread. My old Singer ate anything!!

I was told to not use cotton, just polyester...

I did notice the dark brown Mettler left little dark brown lint piece all over--yuck.

Tell me what thread you have the best luck with. What does your machine like?
