quilting with monofilament thread
It has been more that 20+ years since I have used a monofilament thread for quilting and with this project thought it would be a good time to try it again.
My question is do I drop the feed dogs as I would with other FMQ on my DSM? The movement of the thread and the stretch are a concern to me I want this part of the quilt I am working on to be stippled without any color so it stands independent and making the quilting on this part the only thing that shows.
I am experiencing some thread breakage but to be expected with the monofilament thread. Of course I would like far less thread breakage. I am also experiencing the bobbin 'jumping' a great deal. I can hear it raising up and down in the bobbin case. Is this normal with the monofilament thread? Your help is appreciated.
