How do I use my new machine's "Spool Cushion"?
I just bought a new Brother PQ1500S and it has what is called a "Spool Cushion". All it says in the manual is "Use it when using parallel-wound thread or when using cross-wound thread". But it does NOT show me exactly how to use it. I have no idea how it works. I tried google for information but had no luck finding anything. I appreciate any help you can give me.

I use mine on my Bernina to have the thread come off the spool smoothly without the spool turning. I put the cushion on the right end of the spool pin, push the spool against it and add the right size disc after the spool to lock it in place. This lets just the thread feed off the spool nicely at an even tension.
