Hello Linda, To change the default font, open TextEdit and open the preferences (Cmd-Comma). Select the Rich Text radio button. Navigate right to Rich text font and click the Change button to the right.
The Fonts palette will open and you can use VO-Cmd-t to get to the first table where you select the collection (I normally leave this on All). Then go right to select your font and right again to set the size. Hide the Fonts palette with Cmd-t and close the preferences with Cmd-w. Your default font should be changed.
