Help! I went to do a test piece and the bottom is very bulky - like there is a ton of thread at the back. I changed bobbin thread and the needle and that only makes a little difference. What else can I try?
It's the lettering in my program that I'm using.

Thanks everyone for your answers. I will go try some more.

6788Try to make the embroidery less dense by changing the type of stitch which you are embroidering in to a larger stitch length or a different stitch type(i.e. from satin to step stich) I hope this helps somewhat.***

yup - a couple have mentioned the denseness and now I think about it after seeing the suggestion, that sounds like what it is. Thanks.
21543You need to lower the density of your letters. You are stitching one stitch on another....In lettering, the density should be lower than for regular designs.

40397If you've re-threaded the machine on top and at the bobbin and also if you changed your needle make sure it's not in backwards. Sounds silly but it can happen. If that doesn't solve the problem it could be out of time. Hope one of these ideas help if not you may have to take it to your service man.

299559Sounds silly but rethread you machine both top and bottom, making sure you get the thread tight in the guides.

It's on jean material which I have done a lot on with no problem. (haven't done lettering though)
211079Have you verify the tension?
Is it the same with another design?
Sometimes letters are difficult to embroider.
