I am having tension problems when I put it in the bobbin.

I actually have some tension issue when I put it in the top. I am wondering if it is the brand.

I have a few spools of king tut and I don't have problems with it in the top at all.....but I haven't tried it in the bobbin. I guess I will try that when I have time.

I have to agree with you a bit. I used to love it before I became a LAQ...now when I put it on a quilt..I kind of second guess it like it seems busy....but that could just be because I am not used to it...and I have to adjust.

Hmmm, interesting...I will be watching this post. I know a LAQ that uses varigated in her top and bobbin, stitching looked great, I believe she has a APQS.

**UPDATE - NOT APQS its an A-1
