Sorry, but I had to laugh... how many times have I seen the exact same thing.... but I walked for months, not just a moment.... get out the scissors, seam ripper and tackle it! Good luck.

I've had that happen. I agree, something with the top
tension. Couple years ago had trouble with my machine and
took it to my dealer about 35 mile N. of me. After checking gobs of stuff he took the whole cover off of the
machine and over on the right side (under the 'wheel') there
was a birdnest of thread that would fill the palm of your
hand..I mean so big it was larger than a coffee cup. Neither of us ever figured out where that thread came from
or how it got in there. Puzzleing to this day.

I too have had that happen. I have been doing FMQ lately, a lot and I will be sewing along, hear this certain noise which I have learned mean my thread has wrapped around a guide. I learn quickly to stop and slip it off or it will break. If I slip it off I can just keep sewing. Why or how it does it I don't know.

it makes us appreciate the machine when it doesn't happen. we have all had that experience, not fun but fixable.

Oh! I SO sympathize. I wish I could never forget to properly lower the foot to engage the tension disks.
