espire babylock machine when i turned it on the machine was on but the needle wouldnt go up and down just a motor kind of sound when you pressed the foot pedal then it started sewing but then the needle would not move from the left position to the center when you tried to move it over im a little uncertain what could be happening any one else had this to happen

Fortunately, I've never had that happen. I would turn it off and back on, and check to be sure the needle was in tight. Maybe change the needle and rethread both top and bobbin. Let us know what happens!

Did you ever figure out what was wrong? Be nice to have that bit of info in the back of our knowledge banks if/when we ever encounter the same problem. Hope it was an easy fix!

Which machines is best for the home quilter. I am looking at the BabyLock Quest Plus and the Symphony but don't know which one I should buy. Help!
