get a can of wd40 and spray the surface of your machine and aroung the feed dogs use a soft cloth to spread it aroung the surface gets very smooth so the fab does not stick to the machine. fyi it will not stain or hurt the surface of the machine or cabinet. this advise was given to me when i first started and it really does work. also it does not stain or hurt the fabric. run the machine as fast as it will run and then just move your hands but keep them close enough that you have control of the fab I hope this helps
