Still the same problem so I change the bobbin and needle again. Sew a duck or so then then top breaks again. Clean out the bobbin area and underneath - Grr!! Im at end of my rope and gave up for the day. Any ideas or suggestion - why?? or time to take to shop?

When you say "the Top breaks" is it the needle, the thread or what is breaking? I know when I break a needle quilting it is because I am pulling the quilt through to fast and putting presure on the needle and the needle comes down on the presure plate. I have to slow myself down.

Walking away is good too. Do you drink coffee.... a cup is what I need now.
