MIZKAKI.......thank you so much for the link, it has explained a lot!!!! :)

My Grandmother had that problem once and it was the stitch length dial. She had gone from a basting stitch back to her regular stitch and the arrow was between stitch lengths.

Thanks for sharing. Have come to realize my stitches are straight, I just have to guide it better. it most often is the operator of the machine.

Jenny's site is a wealth of information. Despite the years of practice I've had, I still struggle with verbal or written explanations and I frequently turn to Jenny. She does a wonderful job explaining things.
