Okay, so I took your advice and am attempting to clean the machine. I didn't find any threads but did find a bit of gunk to clean off. I guess I will just continue to clean it. If this doesn't work I don't know what I will do. I am starting to think that maybe I am the problem. I went to my MIL's today to use her Bernina. I thought maybe it would be able to FMQ but it was very finicky. I couldn't even get it to start sewing most of the time. I was able to make one almost perfect line of quilting when I first started but then it wouldn't work at all. So I put the regular presser foot back on and it worked great but as soon as I changed the foot to my fmq foot and lowered the feed dogs it stopped working. I have a bunch of beautiful quilt tops now and no way to quilt them
