Hi there. I have a question. I have fmq'd on my 301 in the past and had beautiful results. Now all of a sudden, I am having trouble with the upper thread picking up the bobbin thread....only when I fmq; no other times do I have this problem. Do you have any insight? I have changed the needle, bobbin, thread, cleaned the machine...everything I can think of. I only happens when I am trying to meander and I have never had this problem before. As a matter of fact, my 301 fmq's better than any other machine I have ever used...now I am all of a sudden having this problem. Any help/suggestions/ideas you have woul be appreciated. Don't know what to do!
