It was probably the wrong kind of invisible thread. I have used YLI nylon monofilament (about .003 mm) with no problems; just need to reduce top tension and wind bobbins slowly so as not to stretch it. Some people prefer to use polyester invisible thread, but I have found that it is not as invisible as nylon.

What brand of thread did you use?
