Site icon Making Scrap Quilts from Stash

I’m frustrated but…

At I’m least I’m finally quilting again! I thought I had things ready so I could just load a quilt but I ended up running around looking for things, my power cord for the bobbin winder, my side clamps, my tape measure and then when I was ready to load the quilt – I realized the backing wasn’t pieced.

Finally, I got the quilt loaded and started quilting and the vibration while I’m quilting is bad. I checked the table – it’s pretty level (just a hair off but that was as close as I could get it in the apartment too) so that’s not the cause. The machine moves freely along the tracks when it’s not on so I’m guessing the wheels on the carriage or the wheels on the machine itself need adjusting due the move. I played with it a bit and maybe noticed a tiny improvement but not nearly good enough. I need to research this a bit and see if I can figure it out.

In the meantime, I’ll keep quilting – the stitches look pretty good except for occasional small bobbles that aren’t too noticeable (like the one in the photo below in the yellow strip).


I really hate this….I just want my machine running well without this vibration.
