Walking each day is a sanity saver for me! The bobbin thread tension tool looks interesting. I have a Bernina 820 on a frame, I wonder if that would help me, or is it just for longarms?

I'm not ever really comfortable with my bobbin tension. But one direction it's fine, and the other it's not. Any tips for that? <br /><br />Have fun in your run. I can't imagine it, but I know it'll be a gorgeous one (if you can look around and not at your feet).<br /><br />We went for a vacation a couple of years ago at St George and really loved it.Elainehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02531235630390968795noreply@blogger.com
