      When I started embroidering the two things that frustrated me was the tension and the bobbin. If it’s not threaded right it will break because of the tension

    1st issue is Auto digitize thats a big no no. it will give you the issues your having and more. always manual digitize.
    2nd your stitch angles are wrong and stitching to long which is one reason it could be stopping.
    3rd Stop turning the tension knobs without knowing what the tension is.
    4th make sure that the bobbing is going the right way and slow down the machine to 650 when your first learning these ricomas.
    5th buy a tension Gauge (Digital Towa) and needle ease.
    6th dont select a second color in the software cause it duplicating the file .
    did I mention to dont use auto digitize.

    Never stop! If you fail, fail all the way. Mistakes are for learning. Once a piece is ruined I feel like it's good to just finish it and keep using it for tests. ❤ I love that you didn't quit!

  • @joyvitaro9444

    Hey Katrina! always check your bobbin when this happens. normally that's the issue.

  • @dabprince09
    @dabprince09 Před 2 lety +9

    Another lesson I learned is to stitch out on just the stabilizer first so you can see what issues you have before you stitch out on the final product. I have had to do that for most of my projects or buy more of the item so I can fix it before I stitch it out. I hope that helps. Stitch out on a smaller sample as you are learning because it does take some time to perfect the machine and adjust the tension. I’ve learned more in the Ricoma tutorials and post training then I did when I first bought my machine. I have the EM1010 so I initially wanted to larger machine but am still leaning the EM1010. We are all in this together. By the way, I love your videos. I’m so inspired on your journey.

  • @dabprince09
    @dabprince09 Před 2 lety +5

    When you auto-digitize and saved the design after putting in the colors, run the stitch out so you can see what gets stitched out first. Do the print preview so you can see what colors are in sequences. Once you fix the colors they way you want them, save it, load it to the machine. I try to go up the colors that I want to stitch together first. Try that save and then load to the machine. I hope that helps. Don’t forget to delete the image. It may be thinking the image is still there.

    I don’t have Chroma. I use another embroidery software. I’m pretty sure that Chroma Luxe has a sew out simulator built into the program. Some simulators are called slow redraw. Running the slow redraw has caught many of my goofs. Plus it saved a lot of time and aggravation.
    Don’t get discouraged. It takes time to learn embroidery software. Keep it simple. Stay away from SVG files until
    you’re more confident with Chroma. I know those SVG designs are cool, but they’re more complicated than they seem. Try the built in digitized fonts. There must be fun shapes in there too.
    Auto digitized embroidery always needs a lot of editing in order to work. Machine problems are quite often the digitizing.
    Loved the floor plant in this video. I’m a commercial embroidery machine operator for a large company. You have my sympathies lol!

    Katrina I have had days like this. It really sucks especially when doing an order for a paying customer. Even though you had issues with your project, you kept going. You don’t have to apologize for being human. People makes mistakes and learn from them. This is something new and you are still learning. Who ever doesn’t understand that and expect you to be perfect could go elsewhere with that crap. I appreciate you posting this to show people that things happen and it’s ok.

    Hello Katrina. I own the MT 1502 and usually when it stops and the thread is still connected, it is because the bobbin is out. Don’t give up. Try a new bobbin and see how that works for you. Sometimes you can get a bad bobbin. Good luck

    @dianeivanoff6312 Před 2 lety +2

    If your problem is on the top , problem is on the bottom…and visa versa. That is either a thread stuck in the cutter area or your bobbin. Second, you should never have to crank on the tension like that, only time tension should be changed is maybe when you change brands of thread or you are working with items like satin, and it doesn’t take much. Just keep trying. It takes several projects to understand how stitches work and how to fix them :)

    @lloydgreen1092 Před 2 lety +7

    Hi Katrina, Love your videos. I have learned a lot from watching them. I think the double embroidering might because you did not delete the artwork layer before saving the DST file. Likewise, I had a similar issue recently and that is what I found to have solved my problem. When you import the artwork, it automatically sets it to a complex fill, even though you auto-digitize it. I might be wrong, but that was my experience. I also had random stitches appearing because the auto-digitize picked up on a pixel of color somewhere in the file. It really is a learning curve. You've got this, and you're doing amazing work.

    • @katrinasgracefulcreations3711
      @katrinasgracefulcreations3711  Před 2 lety +3

      You may be right. I noticed when I went back there was a layer underneath. So weird. Thanks so much. We definitely got this!

    • @lloydgreen1092
      @lloydgreen1092 Před 2 lety +2

      ​@@katrinasgracefulcreations3711Were the thread "breaks" happening only on the bottom layer color? (The weird one). I was experiencing the same type of "thread break" stop when I had the artwork layer in the dst file. The thread seemed to be extra taught - I wonder if the artwork file had some weird setting on it. I just got my machine a few weeks ago and learning all the quirks and features of the beast. Good luck. I enjoy your videos.

    Hi Katrina, you are brilliant. You get 10/10 for this video. I wish I had a way to give you many many thumps up😀. But I feel bad for what you went through. At your expense, we learned a lot. Thank you. I have a Ricoma TC series with 15 needles but somehow never used it. I was planning to start and here you make this awesome video. Please make more videos if you can, whenever you get a chance on Ricoma. I couldn't understand how you were selecting the thread colors on the screen. Perhaps, once I start the embroidery machine, I will get it. The other thing I learned is about Chroma software. I will talk to Ricoma if I can purchase it. I didn't know that so easily one can transfer an SVG into a DST file. Thanks for letting me know. Lloyd Green's comment in this regard was also very helpful. Please keep up your incredible work. Please take care of yourself & your sweet handsome son. You are a great mom entrepreneur and much loved🌹🌹♥♥. Thanks again for such great efforts. Good night. 😊👌👍💐

    Hi Katrina, first thing you would want to change your colors after you design it, then print your design before you embroidery it, in that print out it will give you the order of your colors, and up top in the software, it'll show you how it will start out stitching, before you send it to the embroidery machine. and some times when it stops like that check your bobbin, or your bottom stitches, double your stabilizer, just know nothing beats a failure but a try, so don't you dare give up, loving what you're doing , good luck

    You had me cracking up. I needed this laughter at 4am. Wyoming time. I am thinking of getting Ricoma for my store. I thought of Melco but they were very expensive and financing is high. I own a craft store in Wyoming, and I was hoping to embroider when sales online and shop are slow. I love ❤️ that you always keep it real. God is with you. There is no challenge he can't handle or a fire he can't put out. Let God put those fires out. My nephew was ADHD/bipolar. I was a teenager when he was born, and my mom got full custody. So, I know your frustration. Society doesn't understand kids with special needs. I remember dealing with school teachers whenever my nephew had a bad day at school. Sometimes, we want to control situations, and we forget that God is the creator, and if he created him, he did it for a reason. Anyway, thank you for keeping it real. Do you think Ricoma is a good machine?

But the Ricoma is a great machine, just takes a lot of practice and training. It's definitely worth it in my opinion. It would be a great addition to any business as long as you have the time to commit to it. I have much more to come. Glad I made you laugh. lol.

    Relax, Relate, Release :) Take a time out and just breathe, come back to it with a new look on things. Sometimes we have to give ourselves a break. Go for a walk, look at a funny movie or show, and what always works- Pray about it. Don't ever let anything or anybody steal your JOY. Love your videos. Continued Blessings to you and your son.

    Wow!!!!!!!! I just now found this video and I am so in awe about you and your patience. You were still so calm and positive even after the machine went crazy. I admire you and I love your video. Do you have an idea of what happened or what went wrong? I would love to buy that machine but now I am a little concerned (I am not as good as you dealing with trouble). And here in Germany we don't have the same support with the machine that you guys get. Please let me know what the solution to your problem was.

    I would suggest you practice the design first. Once you see it is right then u transfer it to your project. This will prevent you from messing up your blanks. You can also use your sample for displays on your website. please don’t let it get you down it happened to all of us at some point. Love your content and keep on crafting.

      Check to make sure your needle eye is perfectly centered. If it is turned at all it will cause issues like this. It can’t pick up the bobbin thread straight, so it reads it like something is wrong. Good luck.

  • @LeJean_Dennis

    Rethread your red (making sure the thread path is clear) then take out your bobbin, rethread it & replace. Most times that will fix the problem. What does the back look like? Good luck to ya...

    Thanks for sharing! How the stitches weren't filling the sides, looks like the bobbin was in backwards. That happened to me before, now I always remember from the training that they said to make a 9 with the thread when putting it in the bobbin case. Also when the machine stops like that and the thread is still connected, the bobbin could have ran out and needs to be replaced. I hope that helps.
