The auto-cut feature on my new Brother Simplicity is WONDERFUL. It took a little while to stop trying to cut my threads, but once I began to get into the habit if hitting that little button, it began to feel so natural...
Yay!
Yay!

Re: Just so you know.....
Isn't it fantastic? That feature and the auto threading out me over the moon when I got my machine.
Also, on my Brother machine I can set it to autocut after I'm done stitching. I hit the reverse stitch button, it does that stitch then automatically cuts the thread. I always forget to program it though.
I will say watch your thread after you cut. In my experience some threads will come out of the needle afte you cut.Comment

I feel the same way about my new Brother. Needle down and cutting is the best!Originally posted by easyquilts View PostHugs,

I think it really saves on thread too! Before you know it, you'll wonder how you ever lived without it! Enjoy!

My Brother can be programmed that way too...I think... But, I have no idea hoe to do it.... I 'll check the manual... My ones- on- one session with an instructor is April 8th.... I'm looking forward to that...Originally posted by Pandabear View Post

Re: Just so you know.....
I believe it's called auto cut in the manual. I believe it's the little scissor button on the panel.Comment

Re: Just so you know.....
My Juki has the auto cut button plus it is also on the foot control. Had to disconnect it from the foot controller because I kept on cutting the thread when I meant to sew! LOL
Have fun with your machine.VonnieComment

Re: Just so you know.....
LOL! I have not disconnected mine. I am still living the hope that I can train myself. I usually don’t have a problem unless I’ve been sewing on my Brother for awhile then I have to relearn the peddle. Love thread snips and needle down on both machines. I am sew spoiled now.Originally posted by Vonnie View Post
Congratulations on your new machine Sandy. I hope you learn lots of wonderful, new options that you will enjoy in your one-on-one session.Theda :icon_wave:

Re: Just so you know.....
They work great on drop-in bobbin machines. Vertical bobbins still have problems with bobbin thread cut too short. Never used on the Pfaff 2170. I try not to use it on the 1500S. Rather use starter piece of fabric.Comment
