Good going. I hate how hard it is for us to fix such small issues. They make the machines so you have to pay a small fortune to have a repairperson remove a simple thread nest. And waiting for that repair is awful if it's your only good machine.
I applaud you!

Well, yes it was difficult to keep from being too excited since DH was trying to sleep, but I thought some of my friends on QB would understand. !!!

(It wasn't so very late--only about 10:30 when I managed to get it out!)

Glad you fixed your machine and back to normal. BTW--Everytime I clean my Janome 6600, I use a pipe cleaner and a Q-tip and gently get into the deep parts. Q tip is great to get every last bit of fuzz in the bobbin case area. I even use a tiny dot of sewing machine oil on the Q-tip.

Good for you!!! Thanks I have that machine and hope I do not EVER have a problem like that although I nearly always have trouble with my machines. I think some days I am afraid of them and they can sense it just like dogs and horses!
