Default Help! My sewing machine is squeaking!

Hi all!

It's been a month since I've sewed anything, mainly because I'm in this Blah mood. So, the past couple days, I've cleaned the machine and am ready to sew something.

I have noticed that the machine is squeaking and it's coming from the handwheel/fan area? It happened before during my quilting Christmas gifts spree in December, but I couldn't stop and figure it out then. Sewed a couple squares this morning and it's still squeaking.

So, I thought I'd ask all you experts here, why is it squeaking and what can I do to make it stop. I know the obvious answer it to take it to the dealer and see what can be done, but I thought I'd ask first before spending loads of money on it. My machine is a Baby Lock Espire.

Thank you in advance, I really appreciate it!
