Thanks soo much! I just got superior thread #50! I had trouble with it snapping thread, and also fraying thread on the top then breaking....Blows Sew N Vac told me to try superior in it...so I shall try it as soon as I get my stitch regulator going...agh if it isnt one thing its another lol..

-The thread nests, so what I need to do then is bring the bobbin thread up to the top and hold it, put presser foot down and hold that then start...I dont need to backstich huh, just go...Ok I am up for anything Ill try it...here is a picture of what my thread nests look like and trust me, there are some that are worse then this one! :/
