A couple of questions, donnai. Are you using a long arm for quilting or a home sewing machine? Did you check your machine manual for the settings for FMQ? Most will say that the tension isn't right, but I always like to go all the way back to the first steps in my manual when having issues like this. Did you pull up the bobbin thread to the front of the fabric? Is the needle in the down position or which ever position your machine requires? Is this your first attempt or have you done it before without this happening? What type of computerized machine do you have? Now if you have a long arm machine, please ignore my post. I only use my home sewing machine or DSM, domestic sewing machine.
