DeniseandBobbie Posted November 4, 2006 Report Share Posted November 4, 2006 Our bobbin is stuck. We are newbies and don't know what to do. We took the plate above the bobbin off, but can't see any problem. The flywheel is moving fine, the needle is not stuck or broken. The bobbin arm is moving, but won't eject the case. Help - help.

LindaB Posted November 5, 2006 Report Share Posted November 5, 2006 Were you able to get your bobbin case out yet??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeniseandBobbie Posted November 5, 2006 Author Report Share Posted November 5, 2006 Thanks for asking, Linda Yes we did finally get the case loose.... with one person pulling on the horizonal hinged arm and another applying a little pressure with a tiny screwdriver. Popped right out. The end of the thread was very dirty/greasy like it had been stuck in something..... We rethreaded the top thread and the bobbin case and all worked well. So we completed two rows of stitching on the small quilt we had been practicing on. Hmmmm. It's a mystery how it got stuck. We wasted an hour or so, but we learned more about how our machine works. I suppose if it had stalled during 9-5, Monday through Friday we could have called APQS for more help. Anyway... we are back in business and now know how to participate in the chat line. Happy quilting Denise and Bobbie Sandlake and McMinnville, Oregon Millennium Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LindaB Posted November 5, 2006 Report Share Posted November 5, 2006 That's good news for sure. Glad to hear you got it out. You can gleen a lot of help and information here on the APQS site, and never hesitate to ask questions, believe me, we've all been there a time or two in our quilting journey.....:D Our Millie's are not tempermental and fussy, but there is a learning curve for all of us. Sometimes it's an easy fix .... Happy Quilting, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
