I have read the manual but can't seem figure it out I am going to call Brother in the morning to see if they can help because I need it fixed NOW, lol.HMM I didn't match the needle with the stitch and thread I will look at that next thanks.

There should be a trouble shoot section in the manual it could be anything from thread type, type of needle because different size needles are recommended for different stitches. I hope you solve I hate hitting a road bump in the middle of a project too!! Let us know!!

    Try a heavier needle that is what the quilt shop told me when I was having issues with my Babylock.
