i watched these 4 instructional videos from you tube and they were quite a help. since I am a newbie at this (my first attempt was 2 days ago) one thing i did that helped was to bring the bobbin thread to the top when starting and make sure the feed dogs are down and the presser foot is down, otherwise you get a big tangle of thread in the back. i hope these attachments work
