Kathie, this hair had nothing to do with you or your animals. This machine made the same stitch when you had her. I remember when you tried to use her at last month's Girls Night Out -- she was sewing the same way! We all thought it was your thread remember? Well, this hair was a very long human hair that had been in there a very long time. It just got missed at our FW maintenance class. Didn't Linda even play a lot with your tensions, etc., trying to get a better stitch? I would have thought the stitch was ok if it were not for the fact that I know what a perfect stitch these machines can do - besides, it just didn't sound right either. No, this machine was new to you too, and this problem was before you I am sure! I just kept re-reading the book and searching until I found the problem! The book says in several places how the FW was made so small with perfectly fit parts that a thread can mess it up - there is no wiggle room!
