Q: Can give us some hints about how to set the top and bottom tensions on the machine so you don’t end up with thread loops showing on the top or bottom, and how to know when the tensions are set correctly? A: This is the one most important thing that sets your quilt off as looking like a professional did it versus an amateur did it. It’s all about the tension; and you know that little dial on your machine and it’s either too tight or too loose. Click on the image below to hear the rest of Pam's answer.
