Following this thread to see how others have resolved this problem. I have experienced it a couple of times and changed to every different needle size and type I owned and changed thread. Fought it all the way and finally called it done after the seams had been sewed at least 3 or 4 times and was as good as they were going to get. In retrospect, I could have finished quicker if I had hand stitched the parts where the needle skipped. Next time.....

Edited to add: Every time our local Hancock's would put needles on sale at 50% off, I would buy every wacky off the wall type and all brands. My inventory is still pretty extensive. I really miss Hancock's. It used to be my favorite fabric store.
