I am also just learning. I am making a table runner with machine embroidery designs on some of the blocks. I started a 24,000 stitch design and had less than 4000 stitches left when my bobbin really jammed up. I had to cut it off and I do not know how to get back to the place on my design to finish. I am framing that particular piece as part of my learn and grow gallery. I know a lot about it as I have been reading for several months, but my practical knowledge is another whole process...Bottom line for us I guess is just to hang in there. Good luck!
