Use a practice sandwich before starting on your project. May some of this rant help you!
peace :D
The feed dogs won't go down but I have a darning plate. Just tried your suggestion and even if I stay in one place and let the needle go up and down it still hits. GRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!
Have you checked to see if you needle's bent?
