When I was having problems with invisible thread, my sewing shop recommended that I use a needle with a larger eye like embroidery as well as lower tension. Ever since I did that, I have had no problem. I do use regular thread in bobbin.

Always loosen the top tension to .5 and go up as needed but never tighter then 3.5 Use a topstitch needle size #80/12 or #70/10. thread should come off spool in vertical position. Use very lightweight bobbin thread in bobbin at least a size 60.

loved the solution on the invisible thread by by using a magic marker on the end of the thread to help see to thread the needle. That's a note to myself that will printed on a small card and stuck on my cork board to the left of my Berninia. Thank you
