Default Skipping stitches

I'm so frustrated. I have a 301 on a Grace frame and when I had my practice piece with batting loaded, everything was great. Got the tension adjusted and my stitches were very nice. So when I loaded my quilt I changed my needle and thread. I am also using a batting with a scrim. Now I'm skpping stitches like crazy. I put the old needle back in, made sure the backing wasn't too tight and still no good. Should I change my batting? Maybe its the scrim. What needle should I use. I was using a jeans needle when practising with good results. I don't know...help please.
