Default Long Arm tension issue, I think Help pretty please :-)

Okay, so I changed tops and threads but now I seem to be having an issue. I have TOWA gauge and tension checks out at 200 which is usually my machines happy spot, Tin Lizzy 18, but I am seeing the top thread on the bottom. I have adjusted the tension down to 170 up to 210 and get same result. Then I thought top tension so I tightened it and still same thing. Am I see this because its a variegated thread and a thinish batting? I have re-threaded my machine a few times as well as this is a new needle.

The thread is not loose nor do I get loose stitches up top just the little top thread color peep thru's as you can see it pic
