Skipped Stitches Solved

What type needle are you using? I find that even those needles designated
for "quilting" can give me problems. I like jeans needles, nice and sharp,
no problems yet sewing through dyed fabrics.

I tried changing the needle--no good. Someone suggested that the fabric
might
be the problem, but I had been sewing on batiks (although not these two)
for
several days without problem. Since it was the only easy thing I hadn't
tried,
I tried it. Problem solved!!!! For whatever reason, those particular two
pieces made the machine unhappy. I'm so glad I didn't need a service
call!

Howdy!
It was those 2 batiks--and they don't like the machine-- and you're
machining this project-- you have my address, right? G
