Fd3615 Report post Posted January 14, 2014 Ok so I just received a new cobra class 4. I am sure I'll have a thousand questions.. But here is a few. 1. Does the bobbin color have to match the thread color. 2. Do u always start a run with a back stitch ? Or if u stitch around the project and overlap is that enough to lock the stitches in. 3. Is there a video or reference that explains all the different plates and walking feet ? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This will show up tension issues clearly and you will be forced to learn how to set tensions 2/ If you are going around a project then backtacking is not necessary. As you get to the previous stitching you may need to lift the foot to get into the original set of holes but ( and others will disagree) that is only critical on high stress parts of the job 3/ NFI Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
