What am I doing wrong here. I am using Coats and Clark 100% cotton machine quilting thread. I am stitching along and my stitches are looking even most of the time. just doing some basic loop-de-loops and stippling and then boom the thread snaps.

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

I've had that breakage problem with Coats & Clark too. Now, I use only Sulky or Gutermann, both of those have less loose fibers that causes breakage. Hope this helps.
