Bad stitching.

I wonder if anyone can suggest a cure for very bad stitching on my Husqvarna Rose machine? I know it's old, but it was serviced a year ago, hasn't been worked very much since, and to have it in for another service is so expensive.

Some of the time it goes well, but then it starts to make very loose loops underneath. I tighten up the hoop, but it still does that.

I've tried changing the needle, tightening the tension, padding the sides of the hoop, in case age has warped it, but nothing does any good. If anyone can suggest a cure I'd be very grateful.

As a pensioner, I have no chance of replacing the machine, and have recently had to replace the software because the dongle and discs were stolen during a house move. I'd hate to think that expense must be given up with the machine.

Loose threads under the work often are caused by bobbin issues. Check to be sure the bobbin is inserted correctly, and that the thread is under whatever tensioning device there is. I am not familiar with the Rose, HTH

Thank you, but that was one of the first things I checked, and have done so again several times.

The only other thing I can think of is using thicker stabiliser, but since I haven't changed that much it seems a bit unlikely.

When my wife gets home she might have some ideas. I seem to recall that we had a similar problem with the Rose a few years ago. Or it may have been on a different machine ...

Sorry, no help here. It was a different machine, and the problem was that it needed a professional servicing/cleaning - which you just had.

Thanks, anyway, Herb. I did check for dust and lint, but there was nothing. I'll try other designs, and see if it's just the construction vehicles for my grandsons' tracksuits that are at fault. They are rather dense.

Luckily the problems have been on try-outs, not actual garment pieces.

Hi Joyce,

You don't mention what kind of fabric you are stiching on or what type of stabilizer you are using. So my first suggestion is to try using a thicker stabilizer. (I also have a Rose as well as a Viking 1+ and Designer 1.)

Check thread route from thread to needle. and tension of thread.
