Skipping stitches
I have a janome 6600 and have been doing fmq on a memory quilt. I was given a fusible poly batting (not my choice) and I couldn't seem to get it to fuse....just seemed to compress the fibers. So I just basted the sandwich together using glue. Next I SITD around all the squares with the walking foot. When I started the fmq thr problems started...skipping stitches. And now I find some sticky stuff on the needle. I am thinking both issues are related to the fusible part of the batting. Does anyone have suggestions to fix this problem? Do you think I could "gently" wash the quilt and get rid if the sticky fusible stuff? TIA....Rose.
