I free motion quilted a patchwork denim piece I am going to use as a wall hanging without any problems. NOW, I try to do another piece and the top thread does not loop with the bottom thread and just lays on top of the fabric. It does not do this when I am sewing with the feed dogs up and regular sewing. I have tried adjusting the tension, changing the needle, changing the thread, everything and nothing seems to work! Any ideas??? I really want to try and make some of the beautiful leaf coasters you made.
