    Well, today I was sewing along and knew the bobbin was going to run out soon. Rather than have it end in the middle of something, I opted to put in a new one. This so far seems normal, only I did not put the new full bobbin in. I closed the cover of the bobbin case and very nearly started sewing again without one.

    ......about 7 seconds. I would have been saying naughty words if I actually had started sewing.

    I frequently sew things together the wrong way, so the pattern is on the wrong iside when you open it up to press the seam. %&&*&*^%$*!!!!

    Sewed something the wrong way. Riped it out. Then sewed it the wrong way again.
