I used the 138 that came with the machine. Andwas still having trouble. Im not educated on thread or needles is there a resource to help me with it?

Dirtclod i ran 138 on top and 69 on bottom its a mess

Ill try that tree reaper...

Thanks cowboy bob. On the upper tension disk there is a notch on the artisan that i was told to go over. We will see.. next issue. I was using 138 thread with the bobbin and needle and i was practicing on probably 2 oz leather. When i sewed there was a tiny visible not on the bottom so i changed the bobbin thread to 69 and now the loop is on the top...

Thanks dirtclod. I have this manual but unfortunately it is like reading chinese to me . The diagrams are rather bunched and lacking. I am a visual learner or show me. Directions have always confused me...

I bought an Artisan 618-1sc and im at my witts end trying to figure out how to thread it and how to adjust the tension correctly. is there anyone out there who can help me ???

This was a fun project. I was intimidated at first but made it through. h...
