I like to use a finer thread in the bobbin if possible ,also have you tried those little Magic Bobbin Washers? They seem to help with the bobbin thread not sure how that helps but it does , go to this site to read about them . www.freemotionslider.com Good luck .<br /> SheilaSheilahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07354033852499807242noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2390272447087603106.post-53895885009820721842011-02-01T16:14:46.362-08:002011-02-01T16:14:46.362-08:00I agree with Annie never use invisible thread in t...I agree with Annie never use invisible thread in the bobbin. I use Aurifil 50/2 thread in the bobbin and match the colour to the backing, if using invisible thread on the top. I have started to move away from invisible on the top, it can get brittle and break before I use it up. Use the same thread weight top and bottom, but will change the colours. Hope I was of help.A Garden of Threadshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02311416568496969279noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2390272447087603106.post-46827134938222463432011-02-01T15:57:35.188-08:002011-02-01T15:57:35.188-08:00Hello,

It is just so unruly. it's like trying to deal with twins that are really acting badly at the same time! ;P Just try to match the thread of the back or the or main fabric color. Hope that helps. ;D<br /><br />if not, just shoot me an email.<br /><br />hugz,<br />annie<br />rubyslipperz106.blogspot.comrubyslipperz1052https://www.blogger.com/profile/09051674684950416256noreply@blogger.com
