Sometimes, there are things you can pick out and fix, before you move too far along. The fingernail test underneath works too. Also, when there are problems, try using your brush to look for lint pieces in the bobbin area. And Whoop! Whoop! for this week.

I never thought of looking at the manual! What a novel idea!! Thanks for the suggestion.
