    Rebecca, there is something else you can use. It is not always the easiest thing to find, though. It is an oven liner sheet and I got mine from one of those shops that sells things for bedrooms, bathrooms, etc. and of course generally housewares. It wasn't very expensive. I cut some slits into it so I could slide it over the machine and cut a circle for the needle to have room for sewing. Then I taped it in a couple of places with Scotch-type tape. You can easily move it back,,, or flip it back to remove bobbin. Works for me.

    Thanks, Quiltlover! I'll check into that. Bed, Bath and Beyond might have one or maybe Amazon.

    Some of the forum members have used the teflon oven liners available from Amazon. I haven't tried one myself, but maybe someone will be on here to comment. I've attached a link, but not sure what sizes are available and what size the members are using.
