You might find info in your machine manual Carole. I have found that if you rethread every once in awhile when doing a lot of TN stitching then they are much more inclined to stay cooperative. Taria
Well, I have several thread stands, so I have places for two spools of thread. I just can't figure how you keep from getting the two threads twisted if you're sending them down through the same threading path. I guess I'll have to experiment! I think I would use it for more of a thread painting technique before layering and quilting, because I wouldn't want that zig-zag on the back of my quilt.

Lots of ways to do it. If you don't have a 2nd thread spool holder you can get creative and make one. The silliest, I guess, is to tape a closed safety pin to the top of a coffee mug or jelly jar with the circle loop end up at the top rim. Put your 2nd spool of thread into the mug, thread it through the pin's loop and then just follow your usual upper thread routine. Don't let the two threads tangle around each other. As ridiculous as this mug method sounds and looks, it works very well when a thread is contrary - some metallics are goofy-wound. Polly
