Kerby Smith (Show 702: Quilting in the Digital Age) had a discussion with Jenny Bowker (Show 1804: Quilting Outside the Blocks) regarding adjusting the tension on your sewing machine. What do you do when the factory setting isn’t giving you the best results? Jenny shared with him a simple tension test you may want to try.
The test will help you understand how to adjust your thread tension to get balanced stitches. And it lets you know where to change the setting for optimum results. It works with all sewing machines.
