What exactly happens when you try to sew? Are you able to bring up the bobbin thread? Does it sew but not actually make any stitches? Does the top thread break?

KIM,

THANKS FOR THE INFO. HOW DO I CHANGE IT?

I believe I was the one that sent you the picture. Prism is right--we need more information--i.e. What exactly happens when you try to sew? Are you able to bring up the bobbin thread? Does it sew but not actually make any stitches? Does the top thread break? You can feel free to PM me--I don't mind helping until we get a solution! :-)

Also, can you take a picture of your exact machine?

Also, try taking off your caps lock. All capital letters is considered shouting in terms of netiquette (internet etiquette).

i guess you can't change it..

no matter, looks like you have found your help! this place is awesome!

ps: if you have eyesight problems, then i would think caps are ok, if not, just turn them off..
Good luck with your machine!

To change your title, go into your post and at the top left corner, there will be a buttong that says something along the line of edit title. Click it and type in the box.

What exactly is it doing? Could be that your presserfoot wasnt put down to the tension not set correctly. Have tried to thread it differently if its not picking up the thread? Left to right I believe for this machine.


But let us know what its doing or not doing and we can go from there.
