Default Janome 8900 Problem

I bought my 8900 on November 30 and have been LOVING it. I am currently on a time crunch as I need to have a OBW completed for tomorrow and a quilt and table runner completed for Christmas.

All has been perfect with my machine until this morning, of course.

Since I can't FMQ yet, I was playing with some of the decorative stitches to run down the binding. All was fine for 6, but then I switched to the 7th and ended up with a nest in my bobbin case. I cleaned that out and tried again, and got the same nest.

At this point, I removed the needle plate and bobbin case. Took the brush and canned air and cleaned all out. Put the bobbin case back in, put the needle plate back on, switched the foot to a straight stitch foot and tried again. No luck. Tried to bring the bobbin thread to the top, and all I get is a nest. Changed the bobbin and rethreaded twice, and I'm still getting a nest.

Thoughts? Ideas?

Many thanks in advance since I don't want to finish this quilt on my Pfaff.
