ARGH! Invisible thread
Am I the only one who has a real problem with invisible thread? Nests of thread on back, thread tightening until it snaps, etc. This last time I used it, I read all the info I could find. Put thread behind machine on one of those cone thread holders, adjusted my Janome 4800's tension to 0, slowly threaded machine, Bottom Line in bottom, size 70 needle, put on zig-zag plate, adjust pressure dial to 2, set machine to it's slowest speed setting...did all the right things. Actually the appliques looked pretty good. Only after I finished all 12 Dresden Plate squares, did I realize that I mistakenly used nylon instead of my polyester thread. LOL. I'm thinking that maybe I'm just not supposed to use the stuff. What do you think?
