Got it okay again, sewed two blocks, and now it sews three perfect stitches, then sews four stitches laying on top. How do I fix this.

I have checked the bobbins, and I am using the older ones, and I checked for warpness. What am I missing.
Maybe it needs a new needle. Have you tried that, yet?
Possibly it is THAT particular bobbin that is causing the problem.
