Question What am I doing wrong

Sat down to meander a quilt today on my domestic and couldn't get my machine to free motion. Everything was set up correctly, new needle, tension was lowered to lowest setting, feed dogs dropped, and using Onmi thread. About the fifth bump the thread would break each time. Changed needles again...still happened. Was I going to slow? Maybe too fast? What do you do? Finally gave up and ripped that out and did a slightly wavy uneven straight line. Deffinately not what I wanted to do. I know they say to practice, practice, practice, but I've been doing this for a couple years now, and I'm completely stumped. Help!
