Most newer machines usually have diagrams on them. If yours does you can just follow the arrows that are on the machine, from thread spool to needle. Do you still have the manual?
Don't be so open minded your brains fall out.

Hi Baby,
I am an old sewer. I also teach & one of my major frustrations is that my students expect my to have all answers, they never want to look in their manual. The truth is that with any half good machine, the manual will answer about 90-95% of all your questions. Please, be smart & start out with the manual in your lap, on page one. Usually that starts with naming the parts of the machine & the various feet & accessories that come with it. This will make sure that you & the book are speaking the same language. Then get some fabric scraps & start going through the book & trying each & every stitch & foot. You will be surprised how much you will learn on your own instead of paying someone like me $20 an hour.
