Ok, I tore it apart again, redid everything, and figured out I didn't have the bobbin case in right. I got it in by accident, and thought, hey that looks different, so I tried it and it worked for 10 mins. now the bobbin thread won;t catch. I am getting so frustrated, I cannot figure out the designing, I can't get lettering in and adjusted. I am ready to give up on this machine. I thought when it sewed for those 10 mins I had gotten somewhere. Now I am back to not knowing what to do. I wish I had someone to work with, but there isn't anyone in the area. The LQS only works with Brother machines. I am so frustrated!!!!!!!
