I was there when they opened, (an hours drive away) prepared to stay until I got it fixed or answers why not. LOL Well they took the cover off and looked at the bobbin, all she said was I was useing the wrong bobbin case. Now I didnt know there were two cases no one told me and it wasnt in the book. It works great now.

A alls well that ends well. Probably the shop did not mention this when you got it? At least you are back sewing

Glad to hear it was not a serious costly problem. I think anyone could make that kind of mistake.

that sounds like something I would do....Glad it works for you now that you know what to do....or should I say not do hehehe...

you weren't the first and you won't be the last......flowers for all

Glad mine only has one, I'd go crazy! I have enough trouble remembering which needle to use!

A splot of coloured nail polish on the bobbin and on the matching machine will sort this problem. I have done mine,and it works great.

Oh mama you are not the first to do that & you won't be the last. Just chalk it up as a lesson learned.

Bet you won't make that mistake again Iva. LOL I bet you weren't the first one to do it and certainly not the last. Reva

I know but it still was embarrassing.

Sounds like something I would do. Sometimes we overlook the obvious. Glad everything worked out for you

I'm glad mine only has one, or I would have done the same thing. If it wasn't in the book, how were you suppose to figure it out??? ESP or Mentally talk to your machine....maybe that is what is wrong...we aren't talking to our machines enough.....LOL
Glad you know now.....
