Reply To: Zigzagging over thick seams

[the_professors_assistantKeymaster]

Have you cleaned out your feed dogs? My first (rather basic) Singer machine couldn’t cope with thick seams, so I saved up and waited and got a Janome QC (Quilter companion) machine on the basis that if it is meant to do quilts it can cope with thick clothing seams 😀 But…. if I use a fleecy material or one with lots of lint / fluff my feed dogs clog up quickly, so I have to brush them out mid project.That helps.
