Bertwood started following Question about interchangeable hopping feet........., Carriage Encoder with Bliss, Couching foot for APQS and 4 others

I have a 2010 Millie, with Bliss and Quilt Path. When I pull my machine towards me, it sews fabulous....when I push it away from me it sew irregular, and on the back I have railroad tracks. Then I go from side to side, I get railroad tracks and irregular stitches. So..... Am I correct in saying that the Carriage Encoder on my machine is located in the back of my carriage, up underneath it....and I am unable to adjust it as it is taken care of by the bliss system set-up? Also, the only encoder that I am able to adjust is my Head Encoder? So if I have adjusted my Head Encoder and I am s

Vertical Drag on Millennium
Bertwood replied to Bertwood's topic in Gone Quilting...Chat About Anything
I worked so hard at trying to fix the problem. One thing I did was to make sure my cords were not dragging, or rubbing on ANYTHING.....which is almost impossible. I did however string an overhead wire, and attached my electrical cord to that....keeping the cord up off of the floor. That helped. Then I made sure that my wheels were ALWAYS cleaned. I clean them everyday when I quilt. And, if I quilt for long hours, I wipe them down more. I took any extra weight off of the machine.

I am looking for a specific quilt batting. It is a quilt batting that you cannot see through, DENSE......that does not stretch, holds it shape, STURDY..... that is a bit thicker than 1/16.

ISO Millennium Carriage
Bertwood replied to dbustle's topic in Millennium and Freedom Quilting Machines
Wow, 46".....that is long. I have a 2010 Millie, her carriage is 38" x 6". Is that the size you are looking for? (I have one of those). I do know there are several different carriages out there. Did Dave say which carriage he was talking about, besides the fact that is was small and lighter? How wide is the one you have now? -
I am having a bit of trouble making my channel locks stay in place. I am assuming there is a way to adjust these? Someone referred to a file or text about it.....where would I find a file telling me, or showing me how to adjust them? Thanking you in advance!!!!!!!!! Janice in Northern Minnesota

Dawn, when you say "smaller" carriage, do you mean the narrow one? -

Vertical Drag on Millennium
Bertwood replied to Bertwood's topic in Gone Quilting...Chat About Anything
I found a small burr inside one of the wheels. I filed it down a bit. I am hoping this will help. I am putting my Quilt Path back on my machine, and will see how it goes. Thank you for the help. If it is still a lot of drag, I will call Amy next week. -
