Where did you get the design? I would contact the digitizer if you tried on 2 different machines and had the same problem. Do other designs you have stitch-out without thread breaks?

What machine are you using?

I had the same problem with a design. I solved the problem by setting the thread tension much lower than the regular setting.

Hope this helps.
