I stepped away and found my informational disc so I watched that and follwed it word for ford but for some reason the top thread will tangle to the right of the bobbin and cause a big mess. i have decided to take it to the dealer tomorrow and hope that he can tell me what happened...I was almost done :( that is what is so gut wrenching it is a fairly new machine and has not been used much at all. Again thank you all so much for your input. ;)
