Terri's got the best idea, but time consuming. I wonder if going over the sew area with one of those handy 'dirt devils' (we have one handy) with the little beater roller would get rid of it also? Otherwise have the second bobbin case handy, and every time you change over, run the lint brush inside the bobbin area and blow it out-install the next bobbin and start over. One of those annoying things to keep in mind for setting prices the next time!
