Pleasure minibarn. I'm really useless at remembering very much so I just remember very simple rules.
Needle or thread in the wrong way is the most common cause of bobbin thread not being picked up on a straight stitch machine, particularly on models 15 because half of them have reverse.
These machines are extremely well designed and almost nothing ever goes wrong with them.
