Lacoedo Posted June 17, 2018 Share Posted June 17, 2018 Hi everyone, I have a Brother NV800 Embroidery machine. I've been doing some topstitch experiments and run into some issues. As you can see in the attached photo, the original test (outlined in blue) with a 100/2 Polyester thread looks good. But when I used a 30 Thickness Cotton embroidery thread, I'm getting these weird results (outlined in red). The stitch width for both examples is 2mm. I tried adjusting the sewing speed to minimum for cotton, and even adjusted the tension, to no avail. The machine's instructions say I can't use a thread of 20 or thicker. I'm using the same thread for topstitch and bobbin. Any advice? Thanks! 1 Quote Link to comment
Lacoedo Posted June 17, 2018 Author Share Posted June 17, 2018 Okay, so upping the Tension all the way up to 5 solved the problem. Sorry for the spam everyone! 1 Quote Link to comment
