philippe Report post Posted February 29, 2012 Hello all again. First off let me say thank you to all of those that helped me with my skiver problems, I didn't know what I could to thank properly so I made a donation to the site. I have a new problem, I have a cowboy 797 running 92 bonded nylon top and bottom and a 22 needle. It was stitching fine and straight and all of a sudden my stiches are coming out diagonal like: / / / / / / / / not right like: - - - - - - - - - and I don't know what is happening. I have tried all the regular stuff tension, threading, speed, thread twist, needle position but nothing seems to correct the diagonal stiches to sew straight again. I am sure this isn't the first time that these problems have existed but it is the first time for me so any help or advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks- Philippe P.S. I would post some pics but my camera is also on the fritz Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Art Report post Posted February 29, 2012 Philippe, Your machine should have a system 135x16 tri needle size 19-22 with #20 optimum installed with the thread groove on the left and the thread running through the needle left to right. Make sure the needle has not rotated from that position. Put a new needle in the machine. Art Hello all again.
