    Ya a back up machine is needed. I have a couple of those. I love the quilt and cannot wait to see it finished. Beautiful colors and fabrics.

    A back up sewing machine would be ideal :) Or maybe the loan of a friends to finish up the quilt!??

    If you are using a walking foot, make sure the screw didn't come loose and check to see that it is on the needle screw where it needs to be. Sometimes they slip!

    Is it a computerized machine or a mechanical?

    What brand is it?

    Ut, oh! It has the automatic lift on it, correct?

    My D1 had a similar problem and something had come loose inside, don't ask me how. It may need a trip to the dealer but I'd try calling them first. Maybe they can suggest some other things.

    I used to work for Viking dealer but I've been away from it for a while and gotten a little rusty on troubleshooting.

    Very pretty quilt. Hope you get your machine foot fixed in time. Where did you get the bird print material in the quilt? Ruth Ann
