Trying to finish up a project using invisible thread. Neglected to pull
up the new bobbin thread and stitched about 60" before I realized no
stitching. I think the invisible thread also got sucked down into the
bobbin area and wrapped around something and my 6600 is now locked up.
Off to dealer for repairs :( Maybe I learned my lesson about holding
the tails when starting. I did say maybe... Still have my 9500 I can
finish on. That's why you need more than 1 machine.

I really believe you've learned your lesson.
Meanwhile, have you attempted to peer around with a tiny light from this
direction and that to see if you can get a glimpse of the offending wrap?
Might be worth a look; OTOH I guess the thread could have warmed enough to
melt.
The Home Ec sewing command is to always Hold the Bunny by the Ears.
It's a good habit even if your manual says you don't have to. You don't.
Sometimes. Unless, of course, you're Lyndon Johnson. Polly

I know, John. Just checking to see if anyone was awake ... and old enough
to remember LBJ. Polly
