RockyAussie Report post Posted February 1, 2017 Nice design Gigi and the folded edge came out well and saves a lot of edge coat time I think. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RockyAussie Report post Posted February 2, 2017 Just curious which machine you stitched up with? The bottom and top look similar size thread and quite equal in angle/tension. I would have guessed a bigger machine than a 335. Just got a Cowboy 441 to try out as I hate changing bobbins so much. I'll let you know how she goes when I get it sorted out a bit more. Small LR needles and threads over here are a big challenge.Regards Brian Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gigi Report post Posted February 2, 2017 It is sewn with the Pfaff 335, NM120 size needle, using a flat-bed attachment recently made. BTW that is the first time using titanium coated needles Gebedur - no problems so far. Thread is 'Coats Epic Supermax' - Tkt30 (Tex 105). Yeah: I hate the small bobbin too: we made a 'stand-alone' bobbin-winder and I use it to prepare the bobbins. This is what I love about the Duerkopp 239-525 (my other machine): large bobbins, it is a flat-bed machine though... Good luck with the 441! Comes with a lot of extras/attachments? I am curious about the capabilities of a heavy duty machine too: never tried one. (first time I've seen one was in 2010 in St.Louis Missouri and it was a Cobra).
