It is 11.30pm here in the UK and I haven't managed to get it sew properly since 7pm....had tried everything, cleaning...new needle...new bobbin...different threads but never thought to raise the feed....as I said have just tried it and like magic... perfect tension......thank you, thank you, thank you.
I did a workshop on FMQ with a well-known tutor at the Festival of Quilts and she wispered to me to try doing at home with the feed dogs UP!!
