Hi Jeannine, everywhere I've looked for an answer says that the Husqvarna 550 xp is a chainsaw. Are there numbers or letters missing from the model number you've posted?

Are you using a very thin fabric? If so perhaps you need more pressure, try turning up the pressure wheel a notch. Normal setting is 4 so perhaps up to 5 or 6. But remember to turn it back down when finished.
Make sure the presser foot is in the up position. This will open up the tension disks. It takes a lot of patience to remove imbedded thread. Use tweezers to grab the thread. Rock the handwheel backwards and forwards to help release the thread. If all that fails, have it cleaned by an authorized Husqvarna Viking dealer.

If it were my machine I would pull the back cover for better access to the rotating shaft and remove the remaining thread. If the thread works its way into the shaft bearings you will have a real mess.
Contact your loca authorized Husqvarna Viking dealer. They should have one or be able to order one for you. A list of authorized dealers is available at the Husqvarna Viking website - http://www.husqvarnaviking.com/us
