I know that's not very scientific, but that's the only solution I've found.

I have tried changing the thread tension as well now to no effect. I just don't get it.

Is it getting stuck because the thread is building up like a huge bump? Or is it just stuck (like the machine won't move the needle?) Hi Dawn!

I have double checked the needle. . . I am using thick fabric and a needle intended for thick fabric, so I don't know what is going on. I've tried a couple dozen times to make a buttonhole and have not had a successful result. Until now I had not had any issues getting the machine to do what it is supposed to and the directions in the manual were great, but I'm at a loss here. . .

It is due to arrive on Wednesday and I can\'t wait. Easy to follow and well written tutorials like these make what appears to be difficult jobs seem possible. I enjoyed readng through this tutorial and plan to put it into action soon. Please keep the tutorials coming. Thank you.
