Re: Why does the backing gather up even though it is...
Presser foot tension is to low for the weight/finish of the fabric, or bottom dogs are worn.
- The feed dog feeds the fabric under the presser foot while you guide the fabric.
- The feed dog regulates the stitch length by how much fabric passes under the presser foot as the machine stitches.
- It is important for you to not push and pull the fabric under the presser foot. Allow the feed dog to move the fabric, so that you do not bend and break sewing machine needles.
Hope this helps.
