I also have the Handiquilter 16 that I bought used. Can you tell me which threads you find work the best? I bought 6 cones of So Fine from Superior because of so many recommendations. My machine is shredding it like crazy. I am using Bottom Line in the bobbin and that works well. This whole thread/tension thing can be so frustrating.

The only other thing is I have not been able to find how to change the LED lights on the front handle bars, but I sew from the back...still I need to work on getting those lights fixed.
