    Adjust the tension on the straight stitches down a bit. Make sure your loopers are meeting in the middle first and then try those. It can take a bit of fiddling so use scrap fabric the same as what you are sewing.

    Depending on the density of the fabric I'm sewing I get the same problem and this helps!

    So ... my machine knows when I'm badmouting it on BB . . .. . eeeekkk. I did a whole lot of serging last night and NOT ONE SKIPPED STICH I was sitting there actually begging it to skip a stich, because I just KNOW it will and nothing

    she probably had a AF moment hehehehe .... thanks for all the advice, I'll use it once she acts up again.

    Going to make some breastpads tonight (serging in the round) , so hopefully she;ll do what she is told.

    Oh, my overlocker gets premenstrual too.

    Actually, she's old, it might be menopausal
