Well.. I guess its a "pucker". The stitches (straight, 6per inch) on my corner tie out reinforcements go slack and pucker up on top when the tarp (8x10) is tied out. The actual thread puckers, not the sil. My stitches look good otherwise and as far as I can tell my tension is balanced out as good as its going to get. I'm using an older sears 1403 zigzag machine, silnylon tarp with 1 piece of 200d reinforcement material on the underside and Tera 80 thread. Any idea how I can correct this? I've tried adding sticthes, zig-zag stich and increasing my bottom tension. Increasing my bottom tension helped a little bit but made sewing a nightmare. I'm sure the is something I'm over looking.
My ridgeline & side pull outs do not do this.
