Anyone with an embroidery machine,
I have been using my PE-150 with great success, except... I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong with cloth diapers/burp cloths. I'm trying to put some names or cute sayings on them, but I don't know if it's the stabilizer I'm using or they just don't like me.
When I first got the machine for Christmas I tried to do burp cloths, but my thread wasn't showing up, just the bobbin thread. I would get a little color, but just a hint. I've adjusted my tension. I just don't get it. I went on to other fabrics and have had no problems. I thought I was just finally figuring my machine out, but I come back to the burp cloths and I'm back to square one! ARGH! I was going to do some for my nephew's birthday, but I need some help.
Anyone successful at doing some of these? How do you do it?
