I got the same machine for Christmas, I have tried and tried to all in love with it, haven't so far. I wish I had bought just a simple sewing machine, all this computer stuff on it is so intimidating to me. I can't enjoy it because it is so sensitive. I don't know what I will do with it. I want to take it back to Wal-mart. However it was a present from my Dad and hubby, and besides I picked it out!

Oh, I think is serious enough that you can cry now, AND later!
Hope it all works out in the end. |

I asked him how did he fix it...Duh! He said he took out the screw on the back of the machine...it's by the needle end on the upper part of the machine. The side cap should come off. The machine has been perfect ever since. My husband is very mechnical & will be the first one to touch my machine if it does this again. Good luck with yours.

i know how you feel about the actual quilting portion. so far everything i've done has either been tied or i've paid for it to be done.

Go ahead and cry. Most of us have had some kind of problem at one time or another with a machine. My favorite one can not longer be repaired, parts are no longer available. My new machines aren't as wonderful as my old faithful friend.

How very frustrating for you! Hope everything turns out ok. Let us know.

Glad to hear that it all worked out for you! I had the same problem when I was putting on my binding. And of course it was the last 10 inches. I cleaned out the thread jam, tried again. My bobbin case started jumping in my machine. I have a Janome 7700, just purchased 11 months prior. I took apart the throat plate 7 times to see if I could get it finished. and of course it was 1:00 in the morning and it had to finished the next day. I finally got it to work for the last few inches. I took it into the dealership wear I bought it. The bobbin case/ housing thing had to be adjusted. Good thing it was covered under warranty and first year free service. I was so frustrated at the time. I felt like crying too.

Woo hoo, that's awesome your machine is working now! I don't quilt my Bow Tucks either.
|
Yeah!!! I am so glad it is now working.
|
Sometimes you can turn your machine off, then back on and it resets. Good luck! Hugs to you!!!!
