SOURCE: Sewing machine straight stitch is not straight

Hey. It's full out possible that you have it on the right setting...but concider this - the switcher inside the sewing machine could be broken (ie. It's moving to different stitches - but not the one you have the outside set for)

It happened to me (pc o crap singer model)

SOURCE: stitches

Usually a walking foot is for straight forward stitching only.It keeps the many layers from shifting for you. The "hand-look" quilting takes a couple stitches forward then one back. If you look close, you will see about every other stitch is thicker and stands out more.

SOURCE: Machine sews zigzag although stitch is set at 0 for straight

It must be a design flaw- things don't always last like they are supposed to. I would personally check the physical reason it is not responding... knowing what it would take to make it stop moving- or whatis causing it to. *perhaps the switch isn't working to stop it- or the mechanism that controls it is worn down. If it was new- I'd return it- but there are only a few options at this point.

Sounds like it is either out of time or the adjuster spring needs to be replaced.

SOURCE: skip stitch

The three most obvious causes (other than that of the machine possibly being slightly out of time) are:

1) Too small of a needle size - increase the size.

2) A needle that has a flaw / defect - change the needle.

3) Needle not inserted correctly, either not pushed all the way up into the needle bar, or not installed facing the correct place. On this machine, the small "scarf" in the needle (an indent just above the eye) shouldface the right side of the machine.

Is there a straight stitch plate for jubilant. fabric gets sucked into plate at beginning of rows where I need to start at very edge to close straps for face masks

There is no straight stitch plate listed in the manual. Straight stitch selections list presser foot J. You might try increasing top thread tension.

In similar project type I've used masking tape over the top of the plate with success. Start by remove and reinserting bobbin so bobbin thread is out of the way. Put a long narrow strip of masking tape over center of needle plate (front to back). Take care not to interfere with feed dogs (why narrow tape is necessary). Then rotate hand wheel... needle penetrates tape and brings bobbin thread up through tape.

Can you use quilting bar with walying foot that came with si ger 9960

The info I found has no mention of the quilting bar for the Siinger 9960 walking foot. Most machine with that functionality include the quilting bar with the walking foot. There also needs to be a hole through the walking foot and a method to attach the bar to the foot which doesn't seem possible with what I located. However, you may be able to attach a bar or a guide of some sort using something like masking tape that can be used as a guide.

On a straight-line quilting tutorial I saw recently, the quilter laid down strips painter's tape to mark the lines on the quilt before doing any stitching. Then she simply stitched next to to painter's tape to get straight lines.

I hav e Bernina 1150. When I attach the walking

Hi, when you quilt straight lines using the walking foot, you need the feed dogs up, to move the fabric in a straight direction under the needle. When you do free motion quilting, which is done with a darning foot, your hands move the fabric in many different directions. Since you want to be the one to move the fabric, you put the feed dogs down and you do the work. So when you use the walking foot, keep your feed dogs up. When you use the darning foot, feed dogs down.
