Hi all,
Finally trying my hand at DIY! I thought this was going to be a piece of cake... wrong. I'm practicing on a few scraps and can't seem to get the hang of lock stitching. For some reason they come up looking like the attached pic.
A little background:
I'm using a new 70 universal needle, Mara 70 thread and I'm sewing 1.6 hexon using a J presser foot. The picture is of the bottom face of the fabric.
Should I be using a larger needle? Or perhaps this is a tension issue? I'm not sure if this is the case as the rest of the stitches look alright to me
Many, many thanks.
