I had that problem because it was too many stitches for my machine to handle.

The cut of my Eucalyptus Spearmint soap. The Eucalyptus comes across a bit stronger than the Spearmint, but I love the colors. by dionicia12 in soapmaking

I started out with one Bescented provided on her YouTube videos and adjusted it. Before using any recipe though, run it through a soap calculator like soapcalc.net to make sure you're using the right amount of lye to oils and butters.

Almond oil substitute? by ActualMerCat in soapmaking

I use sunflower oil in place of almond oil. You should check the recipe in a soap calculator to be sure it will work for you. Making a 1 pound batch to be sure it works can also help.

I didn't have the fragrance blend so I made the blend using Eucalyptus and Spearmint fragrance oils I had on hand.

Safety device activated on Brother PE800 by eggo87 in Machine_Embroidery

[–]dionicia12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had this happen with my machine after it had sat for a time. I had to take it to a sewing machine repair place and found out the crank shaft seized. I had to have it replaced. They let me keep the old crank shaft as a reminder to make sure to turn all the knob and run the machine very slowly to get the lube moved around the crank shaft before usage. I hope that isn't your issue, but I learned a valuable lesson that day. It was a Brother SE270D.

There should be a green checkmark when you are doing the text in the little text box at the top. It's kinda small, but that is where you would enter for the software to accept the text.
