Quilt in a Day Forums

I'm machine quilting, red thread in bobbin, white thread on top, using darning set-up, dropped feed dogs; red thread is being partially pulled to top, appears like red specks instead of all white stitching on top! Any suggestions? Thanks!

One of your tensions needs to be changed - first try the top - remember where you started so that you can go back if the top doesn't solve your problem - then try the bobbin tension - one move it a little bit - again making a mark so that you can put it back where you started. It is just a trial and error to fix it

Good luck

If you don't want to mess with the tension, you can use invisable thread in the bobbin.

Your top tension is too tight and is pulling up the bobbin thread.
