If you want help threading the machine, I have to say- I don't recommend the Bernina magnifying set. I've taken to removing mine to thread the needle, as it kind of gets in the way of the thread path through the tension disks and stuff. I guess you could take it off for that part and then put it back on... (It is possible to thread with the glass on, just a pain in my opinion)
Does your machine not have a needle threader? I don't need to be able to see the eye on the needle to thread mine.
I will recommend the magnifier for quilting. I don't know why I went so long without it- it is going to save my back, my posture is so much better now! I just wish Bernina sold them as singles, as I don't really need a set of 3.
