One other question----on my Janome 6600, I have the special bobbin holder for quilting. Will it hurt if I keep that in for regular sewing all of the time? I do see a difference when I quilt with it compared to the normal holder but will I be hurting anything if I use it all of the time?

if your getting good stitches with the "blue" bobbin holder, by all means continue using it! the reason they made it, so you don't have to mess with the tension on the regular one, for FMQ.
by the way, i leave my little screws out, on the face plate, i have had them out for over a yer, and no problems whatever.

I totally forgot that my machine came with two bobbin holders! I'm going to have to find my extra parts area. I have yet to even use the quilting table attachment thing that came with it... Yeah. I need to get on the ball here! :D
