I agree. I could do a lot with my old Viking Rose but now that I have a newer Elna I have to fiddle with the tension, top and bottom, before getting my stippling to look OK. I have practiced a lot but still don't seem to have found a rhythm. I keep trying but sometimes my walking foot quilting does a much better, more reliable job.
