Default Homespun Secrets??

Are there any tips for using homespun fabric? I'm making a very basic rustic flag wall hanging. The "star field" is "homespun", and has three stars appliqued on it. The stripes are just "regular" fabric. Had no problem sewing the star field to the stripes. SID between stripes. Now I want to echo stitch around the stars, but I just can't get it to "go"...barely feeds, bunches all up, and bobbin thread jams. If I remove the homespun, sew on anything else, it works fine. Put the homespun back in, it won't sew. This is the first time I've used homespun..is there something I'm missing?? This field is only 9 x 12...suggestions??
