Thread Tension


Recommended Posts

I am just getting ready to start another quilt top for my best friend. It is the first time to do someone elses quilt. I have done a lot of my own but I feel a bit more pressure with this because it isn't mine. I am using a scrap to test my thread tension before I start because I am changing threads from Poly to Cotton. Everything looks great, top and bottom with the exception of the pointy parts of a swirl. There I can see some bobbin thread coming up. Suggestions? I have a milennium.

If you are seeing the bobbin come up in just the points, you can back off the needle tension just a little bit.

... and adding to Patty's great advice, --- you can also tighten up the bobbin tension just a little bit, too. Gotta do the minor tweaking on bottom and top to get the result you need.
