Default I'm a chicken with my featherweight - please help!

I actually posted this problem in September with my featherweight, but didn't "get" it, so I left it alone...but now I want it back to sew on!... My needle is stuck and I cannot turn my hand wheel forward or backward! It just makes a little "click" when I try. So, I can't remove the needle because it's stuck in the hole. Also, my feed dogs are in a down position... Is that a concern, or is it natural when you're sewing that they go up and down? I'm attaching a picture of the problem. I've looked at the way to remove the bobbin case that was suggested, but I'm afraid to try because the bobbin case is rotated differently from the way it was done on the featherweight 221 website.. Can I still remove it if it's in that position? Thanks in advance for your comments.
