Jim, So does this mean 1/3 of top thread on either side of design with 1/3 of bobbin thread showing in the center on the back side of design? If so, my embroidery now that my dealer adjusted the

Hi Cheryl What you say is very true about the earlier Janome embroidery machines –small is better—but that is not the case with the 12000. As I mentioned,the software engineer right from Janome

Don't forget about that trace basting. That 14 hoop with its roundness does waste a lot of fabric. I wanted to put a corner design on the corner of a ready made placemat (the design was a corner

Thanks Cheryl. Wasn't sure where this library site was located so just Googled Kenny's Korner and found it. Is there a library site on this forum? Sorry, I'm kind unfamiliar with forums yet!

Marla, On the embroidery library site, if you go to Kenny's Corner, there is lots of embroidery help. We seem to be doing well on this forum as well. I'm glad you got your machine back and that all

Hi, What my dealer told me was to NEVER use a large USB. The processors in our sewing machines don't like them. Also remember that the larger they are the longer it will take to load designs into

OMG!!! This Tree is all over the different YahooGroups - mine included. It is PJ's Tree-mendous design. PJ's is also soldby AnitaGooddesign. http://www.pjsinthehoop.com/?p=197 I bought mine at

Thanks, that's what I think too! I was having tension problems with my new 12000, but seems fine now.

Good morning everyone! Where do you go to buy the tree pattern? Donna, it is beautiful. Nice job. Keep your fingers crossed...I have a lady coming over to hopefully buy my 11000 this weekend. Then I

Thanks for the data for this embroidery pattern.I purchased this and will attempt to make it, not sure if I'll use my 12000 (Mercury) or MB4 (Tron). BTW - I am still also waiting for my Digitizer

To help me remember which bobbin case is which, I use a sharpie marker and write in the bottom of each bobbin case. EMB in the case with the yellow dot and REG in the other one. That way I don't have

Make sure you use themagnets on the SQ23 and GR hoops!! When stitching a section of the tree inthe SQ23 hoop, move it to the upper right. There are two pictures in thegroup photo’s in my Album

Firstly, I do not find that the design is overly dense at all. Thedigitizer did a fine job. The density of the design, on the satin stitch edgesis not the problem. In my case I’m pretty sure I could

I looked at the several little applique projects I did that I talked about in my earlier post (What I Love About Embroidery on this machine). The ones I did without the yellow bobbin and without

A simple "rule of thumb" is 1/3 - 1/3 - 1/3 of top - bobbin - top thread. If you are not using Janome bobbin thread you should use the yellow dot case and you should get the 'thirds' result.

Oh thank you, Ginger. No, I'm sorry, guess I didn't explain well enough. No loops. Just showing some on the underside. Now I did have a tension problem though! The dealer had to take the top of

Yes absolutely. When you were explaining it the past few days Ithought you meant there were loops and that is why I was concerned. You are fine. Trust me, worry no more. I agree it did show onour

On the test piece we did at my dealer's store today with my machine there was about 1/3 or so of the backside showing the top thread and the rest was the bobbin thread. I was supposed to take my test
