Well, I was finally able to get it to work after threading it wrong a few times. Very complex to thread :roll: When I got it started, I was amazed, it sewed really nice for sitting for 3 years. I put it under a quilt that was tied, (I'm ripping out the stiches) because I'm going to quilt that thing someday, and it handled the layers really nicely. From what I've heard it sounds like a real work horse. Well, I'm going to make it be one!
