thank you pam. yes, i will get the hang of it, but while the bobbin case, etc is getting adjusted, from where i droped it, i will use my jenome 6600 to 'play' with and quilt a twin, i would like done for my daughter who is 8 months p.g. to cuddle with, this last cold month, or so, before she delivers. and it will be nice to use the frame, instead of having to pin, then quilt pushing it thru the machine. just another learning curve, to keep our minds young, hey??
