I am pretty new at quilting and i wanted to do some fmq on a small top i made. I have practised some simple stippling on mugrugs without problems.
When i started it was fine, but very shortly after i started, my sewing machine (anker, dutch brand) started skipping stitches..
I checked everything, stitch length, thread tension, etc., nothing worked. So i took out my other sewing machine, a Janome 3030, wich had just come back from servicing, and that did the same? I have really no idea how to fix this, especially because it was fine in the beginning and on smaller mugrugs too...Anybody has any ideas? I have a fmq foot, but that does not seem to touch the fabric, does it have to? i cant lower it any further, it is fit for both my machines according to the store i bought it from..
Any help or tips are appreciated.
