So I pulled the needle out and ........ I have no idea how it happened, but it was in backwards. It was in flat to the front. No idea.
Put it back in correctly and my machine sews perfectly again.

Gremlins I tell you, my house is infested with gremlins.

A 6" tall pole lamp fell over in the front room yesterday with no cats or people near it. Our close line in the basement broke last night. My machine tensions are going wonky .........

Gremlins I tell you, gremlins.
