I am making a quillow. I have the quilt sewn, but when I tried to sew the pillow onto the quilt, it must have been too thick and now the bobbin is bunched up. I also broke the presser foot lifter while I was trying to fit all the layers under the foot. so until the machine can be repaired at Joann's in 2 weeks, the project is on hold. my machine and I usually end up doing battle. sigh....
While your machine is in for repair will they check out your tension and make sure the machine is sewing OK?
Yes, I have a list of items to be checked by the repairman. e.g. tension, broken presser foot lifter, and automatic needle threader that only works sometimes. I am going to try and sew the pillow onto the quillow tomorrow, but since I have to manually lift up the presser foot while I slide the quilt under it (tricky, to say the least) and the bobbin tension is sometimes birdnesting, sometimes not, I may not get much done. Wish me luck!

could it be because your presser foot lifter is broken that is affecting your tension?
