QuiltTalk In-Depth Tension & Needle Flex. we've all been there...tension headaches when quilting
If you are new or even seasoned to longarming, here are some tips to help you smooth out the tension path to achieve beautiful stitches. When your stitches are beautiful, creating quilting designs is so much more enjoyable!
Start with a well maintained machine from top to bobbin. Be very familiar with the process your machine manufacturer recommends to keep the hook area oiled and clean and follow the maintenance schedule recommended. Keep the hook area free of lint by brushing out the lint after every bobbin change or blow out with air if recommended by the manufacturer.
Use the size needle recommended with the size of thread and brand of needles recommended by your machine company. Change needles frequently - educators recommend a new needle with every quilt if queen sized, more often with batik quilts.
Use a finer thread in the bobbin, such at DecoBob™. The finer thread will work better with the top thread, and nestle up into the layers easier than the same weight thread as the top thread.
Understand how a stitch is made and how needle flex affects the stitch formation. Here’s a good video to understand needle flex on a longarm machine.
Place a folded piece of batting in the first thread guide above your cone of thread, lay the thread in the fold and thread your machine. The batting will prevent the thread from bouncing through the thread guide and may reduce breakage.
Don’t have your quilt sandwich too tight. It is good to see a small drape over the throat of the machine as it glides under the quilt.
Tension all of a sudden goes haywire? Check your thread path, thread can often jump out of a pigtail and wind itself around a three hole thread guide.
Don’t be fooled when you see a “nub” of your bobbin thread up through the needles hole. This is exactly where we want to see it and when the quilt comes off the frame the stitch will relax into the batting layer, resulting in a beautiful stitch on the top and bottom.
Changing the needle, checking for correct needle placement, cleaning the hook assembly and bobbin case are the first steps to solving tension issues, along with checking for correct thread path. Develop a system you follow every time you need to diagnose tension issues and troubleshooting.
The Grace Speed Control is a universal foot pedal replacement. Use the dial to set the speed of your sewing machine. It works with many machines on the market so if you switch sewing machines, the Speed Control can too!
The Grace Speed Control is a universal foot pedal replacement that works with many machines on the market*. lt allows you to have compatibility with multiple machines listed below* Without the Grace Speed Control you would have to use your regular foot controller for start/stop and speed control.
The Grace Speed Control is compatible with many DC-powered machines that have a single prong foot pedal plug-in. D.C.-powered machines usually have a separate foot pedal plug-in and a power cord plug in.
(AC-powered machines combine the two cords into one plug; these types of machines are generally NOT compatible with the Grace Speed Control, except for 3 prong Janome 1600P.)
Features:
Speed dial that allows you to set your machine to desired stitch speed
On/Off Button
Pulse Button (machine runs untill you release it, or touch and release for a single stitch)

"My Juki 2010 makes me feel so confident starting quilts because piecing is so much faster and more accurate now. And I can quilt them myself without fear! I am so, so happy about that. My nearest Juki dealer is 2 hours away so I shopped online and decided to buy from Allbrands.com. This was after some very quickly answered questions from their customer service. And the included 10 year warranty made me glad I picked it over a slightly less expensive one on ebay."
Same as Juki TL98 +1 Pedal Trim + Speed Control On Board. Be sure to use your toes on the foot control to run the machine and your heel to activate the thread trimmer. If you use try to use your heel to run the machine, it will only activate the thread trimmer and not run the machine. John Douthat, Owner & Tech, AllBrands.

See Compatibility Chart Below. Plugs into electronic computer sewing machine dedicated foot control port, eliminating the need to use your foot control. The Quilter's Cruise Control made in the USA, is a stitch length regulator for use with many short-arm quilting frames. It plugs directly into your sewing machine's foot pedal port. Using optical encoders mounted to your quilting frame, it actively changes the speed of the sewing machine as you move it over the fabric to help maintain uniform stitch length throughout the quilting project.
QCC will NOT work on Babylock BLQ2 not made by Brother, but WILL work on Babylock Quilters Choice Professional BLQP, and new Babylock Jane BL500A both made by Brother
Note: Plugs into foot control port of specified electronic sewing machines with frames, so you don't have to use a separate foot control. Requires quilting frame carriage platform to install x & y motion electronic encoders, which feedback the speed of platform movement, so the motor can speed up or down and maintain stitch length.
Using optical encoders mounted to your quilting frame, it actively changes the speed of the sewing machine as you move it to help maintain uniform stitch length throughout the quilting project.
• Made in the USA
• It is a stitch length regulator for use with many short-arm quilting frames.
• It plugs directly into your sewing machine’s foot pedal port.
• Optical encoders are installed on the carriages of a quilting frame to gather the speed information of the quilter's movement. This is transmitted to the brain of the Quilter's Cruise Control and then, in turn, to the
sewing machine. Without the optical encoders on the frame, there is no signal to the brain, etc. Therefore, there must be a frame with carriages for the QCC to work.

Quilter’s Cruise Control Troubleshooting Guide:
General Set-up and Operation: the speed the sewing machine goes when you are using the QCC is determined by
the speed that you are moving the sewing machine/carriages. The optical encoders pick up on the speed. The one
on the upper carriage determines the speed you’re moving front to back and the one on the bottom carriage
determines the speed you’re moving left to right.
If you’re moving the platform more than 2 inches per second, you are moving too fast. The sewing machine will go
only about 1500 stitches per minute (about two inches per second maximum). Faster than that, the sewing
machine can’t go fast enough and then the needle coming out of the fabric can’t move fast enough to come out
straight up. This can cause thread breakage.
The Quilter’s Cruise Control has nothing to do with thread breakage. It serves basically the same purpose as the
foot pedal. And the foot pedal has nothing to do with thread breakage.
If your sewing machine has a speed slide, it should be in the middle range as this is the speed that works optimally
with the usual settings on the Quilter's Cruise Control. The stitch length on the sewing machine should be set to
zero. The pressure on the foot should be very low or zero.
Troubleshooting for the QCC
First, unthread your needle.
Turn on the sewing machine and the QCC. Ensure the machine light is on and the needle is slowly moving up and
down. Move the carriages front to back only. This checks the operation of the optical encoder on the top carriage.
Do the same moving the carriages left to right. This checks the operation of the optical encoder on the bottom
carriage.
If the problem seems to be the front to back stitching, follow this sequence:
First we need to narrow down if it is something wrong with the optical encoder or the wiring harness or if it is an
installation problem. With the encoder wheel on the top carriage between your thumb and forefinger, spin the
encoder.
1) Does the machine change speed? Yes/No
If yes, that encoder and the wiring harness to it are working just fine and there is something wrong with the
installation. If the sewing machine does not speed up and slow down, something is not right with the encoder or
the wiring harness to it or the installation (see below for a couple of suggestions).
If the problem seems to be the left to right stitching, check the optical encoder on the lower carriage instead.
If this is an installation problem, follow this sequence: Make sure that the optical encoder "tires" or o-rings on the
upper carriage are making good contact on the lower carriage. Gravity should hold the encoder down, although it
should not be so tight that you can't raise it up and let gravity take it down again.
2) Are the O-rings making good contact? Yes/No
Make sure that the encoder is spinning smoothly. If it's hard to see, you might want to put a dot of white paint or
fingernail polish on one of the edges to help see.
3) Is the encoder spinning smoothly? Yes/No
If it is not an installation problem, follow this sequence: Now we need to figure out if it is the optical encoder or
the wiring harness. The way to tell is by gently, very gently, unplugging the wire from the optical encoder and
swapping it over to the other optical encoder. If the problem moved, then the wiring harness is the culprit. If it
stayed in the same place, then the optical encoder is the culprit.
4) What is the culprit? Wiring harness/Optical encoder
Best Practices...You may also want to check:
Bobbin tension. Be sure to check the tension in the bobbin. You can do this by taking the bobbin case with the
bobbin in it and the thread coming out of it. Pretend that it is like a yoyo. Take the protruding thread into your
right hand. Hold your left hand (if you’re right-handed, otherwise just the opposite) below your right hand.
With your right hand holding the thread, allow the bobbin case to move down the thread into your left hand.
If it moves so quickly you don’t need to coax it like a yoyo, the tension is too loose. Tighten it up (tighten the
screw on the bobbin case until such time you test it, it needs to be coaxed down the thread into your left
hand). If the bobbin case doesn’t move down at all, loosen it (loosen the screw on the bobbin case until such
time you test it, it needs only a bit of coaxing, but does move down into your left hand).
Thread path. Refer to your sewing machine manual and follow the directions for threading the machine. For
example, from the pin holding your thread spool, guide the thread up through the two loops on the
telescoping pole, then down through the third hole on the pre-tension arm. Do not go around the screw-like
part that is used only for winding a bobbin. Then guide the thread through the tension disks over the tension
spring, under the lower hook, up through the reciprocating arm, then down and through the thread guides
and through the hole in the needle. This ensures that the thread tension, together with the correct bobbin
tension, is appropriate and won’t cause any thread breakage.
If the thread is correctly routed, there should be no problem. If there is still a problem, there could be a burr
in the tension spring. Or there could some other mechanical anomaly in the sewing machine.
New needle. Needles should not be used more than 8 hours.
Make sure that your feed dogs are down all the way. If they’re rubbing up against the bottom of the fabric,
then you could have a problem with the fabric “sticking” and them maybe not “moving” away from the
needle quickly enough to avoid broken thread or even a broken needle.
Make sure that you have appropriately raised the frame’s take-up bar that goes through the throat of the
sewing machine. If the fabric isn’t just on or barely above the throat of the machine all the way across the
frame, you could have one of two problems: If too low, it will bog down your movement of the carriages. If
too high, the fabric is tenting up, meaning that it is too high above the throat and when the foot goes down
and then comes back up again, the fabric comes up before the needle has had a chance to come out of the
