needle moving when quilting
Hi all, I am quilting my first big quilt on my new machine, and I noticed something today that is making me scratch my head a little.
When I put my needle down and raise the presser foot to pivot the sandwich around the needle, if I'm not very very careful about how much weight and pressure is on the needle, it will move from side to side like it does when I change the needle position. It doesn't actually make the noises it does when I press the buttons to change the needle, and when I start sewing again it goes back to where I had it set. Once raised out of the fabric, I can continue to adjust the needle position as always.
Is this something I need to be worried about? My old machine only had one needle position, and the needle would break before it would move laterally. Is there something broken in this new machine, or are they all like that now?
