  1. Thank you Sue. I don’t have this manual and I will certainly look it over especially that section.
  2. Can someone direct me to a video showing me how to change the check spring in the tension control? I have a 2012 Millie. Thanks.
  3. This video was a great help. Thank you Sue. I’m not sure what design I will use. I’m thinking just a loose wave.
  4. I am getting ready to quilt this church banner. I am really not sure what color to quilt it - except for the backing which is red and I will use So Fine I have. My question is I have Monopoly thread and am wondering if that would work in my Millie with So Fine in bobbin? If so what size needle would be best to use? Thanks for any help or suggestions.
  5. Thank you both for your input. I will certainly look at the videos. Cagey I think I actually have Angela Walter’s Shape by Shape book. I will do some searching. when finished I will share here.
  6. Thank you Sue. It’s worth a try I guess. Here is a quilt I am struggling with to quilt. I want feathers in the border but I can’t figure out how to quilt the body of the quilt. It’s already on the longarm so it’s hard to get a pic of the center but I tried. Thanks for any help or suggestions.
  7. I have not been on this forum for a long time. We used to post pics of quilts we were struggling with and ask for quilting suggestions. Can I still do that?
  8. I’m hoping this was the answer. I’ve had this cone of thread for a long time. I put some Sewers Aid on it last night and let it sit. So far this morning it’s stitching beautiful. But...and there’s always a but... I was doing a pantograph and as usual the cone unwinding as I sew catches my eye. I stopped and looked and part of the thread was unwinding/raveling when it came off the cone. So now I’m wondering if I have a bad cone of Omni thread. I unwound a bunch of it and rewound some bobbins with it and haven’t seen anymore. I’m thinking this is what happened when the thread was breaking/raveling down by the needle. Thanks for your suggestions and I did check for burrs and have none.
  9. Ok that’s what I will check in the morning. Thanks and I’ll let you all know.
  10. I have not checked that. I will check for burrs. It seems to shred down by the needle area. I have changed the needle twice - both brand new.
  11. Hi everyone. I am experiencing shredding of my top thread today. I’m using Omni thread top and bottom and I have a Millie. I hardly ever have this issue but I can’t seem to figure it out. Omni is always my go to thread that always worked in her. I’ve rethreaded, changed needles, cleaned everything. What else could it be? I’m open to all suggestions. Thanks.
  12. I’m going to the fall show also...after going to the Spring one. I’m curious too. I have signed up for an all day class on Friday so I won’t see much of it anyway.
  13. Awww this is awesome for display. Wonderful design and perfect quilting!
  14. good morning Ann could I make a block for you.... if you wouldn't mind sending Betsie about 5 dollars to go towards the postage to send the quilt to Rita? No pressure you had said you were on the road it was just an idea I had. You can say no Thanks for concidering my request If you do this is there something you would like me to put on the block for you besides your Name?

      That would be wonderful. I just opened up the forum from last week. If you just want to put my name that would be fine. I will sent a message to Bettie for her address. Thanks so much!
