We had a conversation on another thread (see below) about changing the default needle position from left to center position so that when you turn it on, it will be in the center position. (or right position).

Look in your manual, under 'change the machine settings', if it is possible to change it on your machine, it will tell you how to do so. If it is still not clear to you, call 1-(877)276-8437, which is the customer support number. It may take some time to get through, but be patient, they are great at walking you through this kind of thing, I have brain damage, and they never get upset with my limitations.
BTW- I just realized that my machine is capable of sewing SIDEWAYS! I gotta go play with it now. :D

My sister in law just bought a new Brother (which incidently was bought out by Janome) and her machine is fantastic. It is the new Laura Ashley version ($3000.) and it sews sideways. Nice feature. I did not know you could change the postion of the needle with default. Have to tell my DIL as she has a brother and has broke several needles cause she forgets how to reset the needle position.

This is something great to know. Perhaps when turning it on sometimes you forget to push the number 1 and it comes down and hits the bar. I think I am going to have to check it out and try and change my default.
