Is there some secret to avoiding breaking thread? I've been working on several quilts lately and I'm kind of tired of it. it doesn't seem to matter what quilt it is or what thread, the breakage just seems to go along with it. Is this normal?
Last night I was working on a quilt with cotton thread on the top and polyester bobbin thread. First I changed the bobbin thread to cotton and that heped but the top thread kept breaking so I switched to rayon on top. That helped for a while then the top thread started breaking again. I've changed the needle and adjusted the top tension. Anything ese I should do? Maybe adjust stitch length? Not sure how that would help but I'm willing to try.
