serger
Hi Quilters, I wanted to show and ask if any of you have ever had this problem. When I was serging something one day I had what I thought was a straight pin come up and I couldn't do anything but pull it out. I use long straight pins with a yellow glass head but there was no head on it. well, it was bent so I threw it away. Weeks later I realized it was a pin from my needle plate. Now one of my lower looper threads doesn't have anywhere to go as it wraps around this pin to make the stitches. Have you ever replaced just a pin or do you have to buy the needle plate? Photo shows one pin missing.
