Also, when you say you were practicing FMQ with the foot off... you didn't have a FMQ/darning foot on?
Thank you, I appreciate the offer.
No, I don't have a foot yet, I've got to order one, do you think I ought to wait till I get one? But as my DH just said when I told him I fixed it: operator error! I had taken the bottom cover off and was just beginning to try to figure it all out, when I thought, you know, it was the needle, suppose, just suppose..and so I took the needle back out, reseated it (correctly this time, I presume) and it seems that was it!!
But if you feel like doing a tuteriol it wouldn't hurt. There is a site or two that show exactly how the needle and the scarf are supposed to be related...but then they don't tell you how to actually do it.
