ahha!! I looked at it again...the foot is broken, the part that attaches to the machine (behind the screw) is cracked.....so when I put the presser down it just pushed it back(the bar) and then it was all wonky whiched caused my needle to go through the wrong part....I guess I am off to buy a new FMQ foot - but not til Monday
...unless Hancocks carries those....anyone know? I know Joanns doesn't.
