    btw: it took me a lot of practice to master my threader. Even when it takes me three or four times to thread the needle, it is much easier on me if I use the threader. :)

    The one on my machine, which is just like the one on my daughter's machine, was misaligned at the factory and has never worked properly. My daughter's works like a charm. The point is, it may not be your fault. It may be a problem with the machine. froggyintexas

    I can't do it on my Singer or Brother. I did it once and from then on I do it the squint eye method.

    You probably can get it fixes for about $15.

    All of my Janome's have the best needle threaders, hands down. Not a problem. Saves me from having to get my glasses to thread and saves a few choice words as well as time.
