I'm just a step ahead of you. I received a Brother sewing machine as a gift. It has a computer and tons of stitches. Wednesday I went to sew with it for the first time, I went to wind the bobbin, the thread wound itself on the post under the bobbin about 100 times and, now that I got all that thread off, the bobbin does not want to wind all the way. I have no idea how to make it work correctly and the booklet doesn't say. I may have to take it to get repaired, and the warranty is over (I had it for more than a year before daring to touch it.) On the other hand, maybe I made some stupid mistake, but I really did just what the booklet said. I guess I need lessons on how to use it.
So, my advice would be to get a machine that has less bells & whistles, and just can sew without breaking down.:001_smile:
ETA: the one I have is Project Runway Limited Edition PC-210.
