These designs are from Allembroidery $3 bargains. The horse and the tree are in one set and the little doilley is from another lot.
I have a question, the horse was done in rayon and kept fraying and breaking all of the time, yet the others are polyester and did not do either. Am I only supposed to use polyester thread for fsl? I also used 2 layers of wss.

These are very cute.
I was told that if your thread keeps breaking to put it in the freezer for 30 minutes, not any longer. It is worth a try.

if your rayon cone keeps fraying, it means the thread is getting to old to embroidery with. the tread maybe a new cone to you, but could have been setting on the shelf to long. i have used rayon thread for fsl before. i hope that this helps. *4u:)

Lovely designs. Is it variegated thread you used for the tree or more than one colour? The effect is very pretty.

I use overlocking thread to do FSL 2 reasons, 1: its cheaper 2: no problems with thread breakage, hope this helps...****

Sheryl, you are doing wonderful work - I love these designs - wasn't that a great sale on AE? Try the same design that was giving you trouble with the other thread - see how that goes - then think about - whether or not you recently changed the needle on the others or the one with the difficulty or if the thread is old, too? Let us know - what you figured out? Hehehe! *4U

Thanks Shirlene, and yes what a great sale it was, the trouble was which ones to get!!! Thanks for the advice shirlene, same needle, and I actually tried the advice of "Americangirl" about putting it in the freezer and it still broke but, only about 5 times instead of about 50, the first
Well, the freezer trick - worked on the most part - so it must have been that the thread was old and needed the lift. Hehehe! Thanks!
yes, it did, though never heard of that before but, will remember now
