Have you wat...Oh boy....it has to happen sometime. Have you watched and seen Jamie Walen on youtube for tension lessons? here's a link<br /> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LbGK19LUIW0<br /><br />He was a huge help for me to understand. Also....lint in the bobbin case at the catch spring point. I often get a gob of lint and have to pick it out of the case with a pin. It will take the tension off the bobbin thread and you cant get it tight no matter how you try. I use Aurifil now and it has less lint.<br />Winding bobbins is a big deal....there is also a video to help understand that. I finally gave up and ordered pre-wound bobbins from Superior threads for my machine. I have been very happy with them. <br /><br />The acorn and leaves look great! It will come together as there is a huge learning curve. Keep stitching.Debbiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08468608812169214999noreply@blogger.com
