  1. Occasionally when I am quilting along, my millie suddenly races for a second or two making tiny stitches. It scares me to death as I am usually using a ruler and have my hands down near the hopping foot. I tried blowing out the carbon in the area around the motor under the hood, I've tried using a humidifier incase it is static electricity build up, but don't know what else I can do... Has anyone else had this issue and what did you do to fix it? It has me nervous while I am quilting....
  2. Yes it may be the #8 screw that needs adjustment.
  3. I had mine on the 2nd floor in a big room over the garage, never a problem and the view was better than it is now from the basement!
  4. I wish I could find one that doesn't leak water, the only way to do that is to not use the steam in your iron and keep it dry...I have an oliso also that I love but it started to leak water after about 6 months, so I don't think one exists that does not leak...I've tried them all...but on the other hand if you don't use water it is a good iron.
  5. Tyquilter, Egads, I just realized that I forgot to followup on the boards that I am willing to part with...I mostly do freehand now and just don't use them, both have been used once...I will use your email above and send you the information if that's still ok... Thanks, Vicki
  6. I too have a set, I'll get a picture and post that too....
  7. Just checking back with you - did you get some help with your wheels and adjusting them?
  8. Have you tried using the micro handles? They get your hands down closer to the fabric and makes it so much easier to control your machine...my backtracking improved considerably when I use them....
  9. Yes, thanks for sharing your story Wendy so that we can all learn from it…I am so sorry that it got so ugly but glad that you finally got things made somewhat right…
  10. I am thinking #8 screw adjustment too, or it could be power surges and maybe a short in the circuit board? Apqs will have the answer for you....
