Sandy it's the screw that holds your presser foot on. It sometimes loosens while you sew. You know the screw you tighten and loosen to change the presser foot? That's the one that comes loose.

I took a picture of it. I have the pencil pointing to the screw you need to tighten. Make sure the foot is in place, then tighten.
