I see ripping in my future

Well, I guess I’ll be doing some ripping this evening so I can get my friend Sarah’s quilt quilted.  She made is as a gift, so I need to get it finished this weekend.  It’s been suggested that I need to tighten the upper tension and/or adjust the spring.  It had better work, because I don’t know if I can handle another disappointment right now.  I have plenty more quilts that need quilting and I can’t seem to want to be in troubleshooting mode.  I just want to do them and have everything work for a change.  It’s been a tough year for me.  I’ve quilted 15 quilts in the last 2 months and never had this much trouble!  I do not want to start the new year with all these UFOs hanging over my head.
