I had a BIG problem this afternoon, I had received a beautiful top for Moms day it was too long for me, so I thought I will shorten it by 3 inches and it is will be fine. So I purchased ball point needles for Jersey knits. This top was 94% Poly and 6% Spandex. My Bernina 153 would not sew a stitch on this fabric.. 45 minutes after retreading rewinding bobbin, changing out for another ball pint needle ...still not a stitch.. Light bulb came on and I put a strip of tissue paper on top of fabric and it stitched like a dream. I do not know why ..but just wanted to share that it worked in case anyone else needed to know this. After finishing I took a dip in the pool, water temp was like bath water 90 degrees.. I am all relaxed now.
