I called my dealer and tried all kinds of things but neglected to mention the bobbin. As a result, I took my machine to the dealer the next day where they quickly discovered the problem. If you put a Janome bobbin next to a Brother bobbin, one bobbin is just a hair shorter. What a headache!
I keep them seperate and marked! Skowlkat is right, they are not the same size.
