Thanks,
I have Vikings too. And yes I did have that problem. Check your tension, clean out the bobbin area well from lint. If it still happens, check with your dealer. I had an issue 2 years ago with mine, turned out the tension unit went bad and had to be replaced, it was covered by the warranty so no charge. If you take it in for repair, also take the embroidery unit in so they can check it out too. I guess that was where my problem was, because it didn't do it during regular sewing.
