New sewer/quilter
 

Hi everyone!
I'm fairly new to sewing/quilting...definitely a beginner. I'm working on a small quilt right now (as practice, but if it's usable when I'm done, I will donate it). I'm sure I will have a lot of questions. I bought a Janome Jem Gold 660. If anyone has used it before, my immediate concern is the reverse stitch lever. It works if you hold it down, but goes down at an angle. It looks like it should go down straight. I wasn't sure if this was how it works, or if it came to me broken. I tried to google it, but that got me nowhere. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated!

Welcome. I cannot help with a Janome, however.

I know nothing about Janomes either.......maybe if you post under the main category or the machine section with Janome in the top line someone might see it and help!

Thank you, everyone! I got very caught up in Thanksgiving prep/post-wedding stuff, so I haven't gotten a chance to look at the boards. I will post my question in the general section. Thanks for the warm welcome!

anyway, hope you find out the answer on your machine soon. do you have a sewing machine shop around you could ask?
