Thanks to all of you wonderful folks, the problem was the needle! I don't know if it was in there backwards or what, but once I took it out and re-installed it, all was well again.
The machine still needs to be serviced, but I'll wait until I get ready to go out of town in a month or so for that, since I don't have a spare machine...
