That's ''semi-great"-- haha I will say that I've had the thread tension go bad again while actually in the process. I stay near & when I 'suspect', I stop, lift the foot high & back down again...and continue on. But how do you fix a problem like I had this a.m.? Loaded up--started off-fabric pulled from side of hoop and bunched & big mess! MY FAULT..mind wandered and I forgot to tighten hoop screw!! We all have our mishaps.
