Thread breakage
#12
I would use a quilting or topstitch needle, not an embroidery, your needle probably too small and or you might be going to fast, there are a lot of variables in machine quilting, most likely its needle. are you ussing a thick thread I would go 90 size for quilting unless you are using a 30wt thread than I would go 100

Hulalulu, yes I would love your settings! Thank you so much for your help.
As far as using an embroidery needle, I was recently told to use those at my LQS by a very experienced machine quilter. But today I stopped in to see the Husky dealer and had a quick lesson. Right now I am using an Inspira quilting size 90 needle and life is good!
Thank you all for all your suggestions!
