If not, I can help you in the morning. I had this happen to me. It's a simple fix, but I don't know the names of the parts to describe the process. I'll try .... There is a metal rod that runs the same direction as the sewing arm. It's above the arm. If you turn if with your hand, you can manually move the needle to the needle up position. Then make sure you emergency stop button isn't engaged so it can start up correctly. Turn if off, then turn it back on, and hopefully you should be fine. Sorry I couldn't be more technical.
