Speed is my problem, always trying to get er done, lol...This is small -37x37 but it is a start. Not sure I can handle a larg one. I am going to keep practicing. I know that is what it takes. Ok, hope all has a wonderful day. Happy Quilting to you all.
If thread keeps breaking, check the bobbin thread tension. If thread does not pull out smoothly without any jerks, it is too tight! I had this happen on my Grandquilter machine and watched a guy on youtube named Jamie Linn (I think) did what he said and now it works just great!
