Help! Finally after having some time to get back to my sewing room ( DH being sick & some kitchen renovations) and now I have a problem...started a design and things were going fine despite 2 broken needles.then time to change the bobbin! OK,did that,BUT...now I can not get the hoop to snap back on!!This has happened once before.It seems whenever my arm is in an extended position(I think this is the case)I just can not re attach my hoop!! Finally I quit and just took note of the needle position.I will try again tomorrow,but the thing that annoys me is that I have spent more than an hour on this!!My hoop just refuses to attach! Most times it just clicks into place.Is this because I am into a design and the hoop is extended?? This is a test and I am SOOO frustrated.Please help.

Hugs,Nadyne

Hi Nadyne, What kind of machine do you have? Sometimes on my Brother, the little pins are showing, and I have to fidget with them until they pop back into place, then my frame will go back in. It's a mechanical thing. Could that be the problem you are having? I know how frustrating this can be - grrrrrrr.
Hugs, Jan

Nadyne, so glad to see you are back in the sewing room - hard to get things done when you have an ill hubby and going through renovations - we hope to see pictures of that soon in PERSONALS, too.

Good luck with this - hopefully - when you turn your machine on next - the hoop will pop on - as if nothing was wrong.

Sorry I don't have a brother. Do you have a button to press to bring the arm closer to the machine, as this might help. And then when you have the hoop attached and ready to stitch the machine will go to were it was.
