Nativetexan! You are so right. Everything you have said is true. I know that it is my doing but doesn't mean that I am still not struggling. I do remove pins (and I need them still) but usually remove them just ahead of the needle. I know that part of my problem is the lack of good lighting right at the presser foot. Thanks again for your truthful reply. Love it!
