When I saw a zig zag stitch with my sewing machine it does not lay flat, there is a raised ridge running down the middle of the zig zag. I dont know what I'm doing wrong. I have it on regular zig zag, 5.0 width and 2.0 length.
Thanks

Hi Veronica,
When we sew straight stitches the thread tension setting on the machine may be perfect. However when sewing zigzag or decorative stitches the needle moves side to side, needing more thread for the stitches. Therefore we need to adjust the thread tension by lowering it.
Test your stitches, you may also need to adjust the bobbin thread tension, by lowering it a bit as well.
Let me know if this helps.
