Q: My stitches are skipping BIG?
A: Could be many things. Here are some major culprits.
1. Try a new needle.
2. Is needle sitting up "snug" where it should be?
3. I use a topstitch 80/12 needle(good % of quilters use this but it's not the only option of course).
4. Thread -try a dif thread (thread does go bad).
5. A lot of quilters use cotton thread but I personally use "Superior Polyester Thread" (cotton "drags" in my machine).
6. Adjust your foot height- you don't want it smashing your fabric/but you don't want it too high either....just hover over fabric.
7. Your hand speed and foot pedal speed should be in balance....slowing your hands to meet your foot speed could be the problem.
8. If your fabrics are really thick then this could cause skipping...try going at a "snail pace" for a minute and see if the skipping stops..if so then that is the reason.
