Jmoore - just want to make a clarification before you go out shopping - it is a "blue dot" bobbin CASE that's been talked about - not a bobbin.
I finally got it going smoothly tonight - after fiddling around and changing setting back and forth. Yes, one of the things that helped was moving the tension to a higher number - even tho the manual suggests a lower number. It is a baby quilt and I only had time to get it half finished tonight and then I really hated to turn the machine off while it was going good....afraid it will forget what it was supposed to do by morning.
Don't know how I'd ever manage without this board. THANKS TO ALL OF YOU!
