Did you recent have a jam up in your machine? Could be your hook timing is just a tiny bit out. Not enough to bother regular sewing but by moving the thread just a tiny bit while sewing could unhook the thread from the timing hook leaving it free until the next stitch. Until you can get it to the shop, I'd try doing one back up stitch and then turn.

I would take it back to the shop and exchange it for another machine. It is a new machine and should not be doing anything like this in the first place. All suggestions are really good and helpful but the bottom line is that you have only just bought it and you should not have to put up with problems like this with a new machine. It should still be under warranty and I would insist on exchanging it for a brand new machine. Test out the new machine with your threads and make sure there is not a problem with it before taking it away with you. Best wishes and good luck.

Well after reading the last couple of post I guess I'll call the dealer where I bought it. Its a brother quilter, maybe she could answer this problem. I just assumed it was something I was doing wrong and had nothing to do with the machine itself, but I could be wrong.
