I meant Presser foot UP, which is why I went on to say I had been putting it down. It might take me a while to remember to put it up though.
I've had the thread come out by turning the wheel. I bought a new lightweight Brother to take to class and I have to actually hold the thread and line up the hand wheel each time I stop stitching or it will do that. It will also create a big mess from attempting to get to the right position to start the first stitch. I couldn't figure out what was wrong with it till I read the manual --
imagine that? You're supposed to read the manual?? There is a raised plastic line on the hand-wheel where it should be lined up and I darkened it with a permanent Sharpie.
It's a real pain to remember since I learned to sew on my Janome which returns itself to the right position.
