Richard,
I'm very pleased to say that I fell into that group of people who don't find overhead any more difficult than vertical. Last night I ran a couple of horizontals to start and adjust my machine as I always do. Once I was done with that I ran a vertical or two to get into the swing of those again. I then decided to just try an overhead on my own so I could see what I'd come up with.

When I was done I took it down and showed it to my instructor telling him what I'd done. It was solidly stitched but noticeably heavier on what had been the horizontal piece than the vertical piece. He told me run one more and to "favor" the overhead a bit because of the natural tendency of the molten material to run downward. I did and when I showed it to him he told me that was my "A" for the overhead. [img]/forums/images/icons/grin.gif[/img]
