Normally a problem on the back means a tension problem with the needle, a problem on the front means tension issues with the bobbin. I think you need to tighten your tension to the needle. Also, curves are tricky and need to be done a bit slower. Even with great tension you can run into issues on curves if you go too fast.
Thanks for this tip. Even though I haven't tried FMQ yet, being forewarned is being forearmed.
Absolutely, I am new to quilting and learning as I go. Being able to draw on the experience and talent of others has made it a great experience!
