Sorry I did not realize I had caps lock on during above post. I am a quilter but not much of a typer.

that is what coats & clark does in my machine.

No problem on the caps thing. I'm not really sure what it was with the thread. Probably just a substandard part of the spool where the weight of the thread was off just enough to upset the machine, although by eye I can not tell if that is so. I'm just so thankful my machine's running happily again, I'm not going to test providence! LOL! I'll gladly pay the cost of a new spool of thread over the cost of service (& down time), which starts over $100.00.

Thank you. I have a bad back & can't stand, sit or lay down for long periods of time without paying dearly for it. I have to keep moving. I can sometimes doze in my chair for a bit off & on & some days just can't get out of my own way, but I have a sewing machine & fabric, so I'm a happy woman. :-)
