I have a supreme slider and have tried that -have also put in a needle with a bigger eye-same problem. Thanks for the response.

Have tried adjusting the tension. One way it loops on the top other way loops on the bottom. Thanks for the response.

Sorry don't understrand "thread is long staple".

I have a feeling the solution was dropping the feed dog.
With the free motion foot things are right, but I think you would have been able to quilt with the plain utility foot on.

Using a Topstitch needle might help.

What types of thread are you using? Very rarely have I had trouble with thread in any of my machines but sometimes when embroidering I have noticed some thread has almost stuck coming off the spool, it could be the spool has a burr on the end that the thread runs off from? Some companies make a slice or something to hold the thread in place when not in use and that can cause headaches if the thread catches. Try a mesh spool cover over the thread and see if that won't help?

Good Luck
