I never see the top red square. But it didn't work, I have had to replace the hook twice, because I started to zig zag with the wrong stitch plate. Now I put blue painters tape across the stitch selection screen so I can't choose anything but the straight stitch. It's been an entire year without a hook replacement.ChrisChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07151472912348811392noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6793689019599882953.post-83684212465458751692008-12-05T18:31:00.000-07:002008-12-05T18:31:00.000-07:00I'm sick of rotary cutters...I'm sick of rotary cutters...Amanda B.https://www.blogger.com/profile/00438832943716044678noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6793689019599882953.post-41009702724146766882008-11-23T21:11:00.000-07:002008-11-23T21:11:00.000-07:00I always close the blade...tee hee...I always close the blade...tee hee...Amanda B.https://www.blogger.com/profile/00438832943716044678noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6793689019599882953.post-33397342130509575842008-11-05T22:30:00.000-07:002008-11-05T22:30:00.000-07:00He yLauri,Love all the info here... lots of good s...He yLauri,<BR/><BR/>Love all the info here... lots of good stuff.

I just line it up with the markings on the plate and have it from top to bottom on my machine. Makes it easier to follow the tape having it all along machine instead of trying to follow it on the plate of your machine.Tiffanyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15603269009390859089noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6793689019599882953.post-22712629677286031882008-10-30T22:56:00.000-06:002008-10-30T22:56:00.000-06:00Oh, is that what those dots on the side are?
