Good morning. I don’t post much but I do love to read all the posts. Anyway I’ve never had a problem with my 6600 until the other day. All of a sudden she’s making this thudding sound when the needle is piercing the fabric and after a short while it will actually shudder and stop sewing like it’s hitting the needle plate. There are nics on the needle plate. I’ve cleaned her, put in a new needle and checked that the needle is center in the opening of the needle plate. She hums right along with a needle in and no fabric under the presser foot. But, if I add fabric it quickly goes downhill. It starts out sorta okay but you can tell that it’s struggle to pierce the fabric. I don’t know what else to try. I am taking her to my dealer tomorrow but I was wondering it anyone knows whats going on or anything else I can try to make her feel better. Thanks in advance
