I'm going to adjust tension for now...I've had this problem before, and have dropped it off at the repair shop. Usually get told the machine is fine, that they just cleaned everything--and get charged $60.00. And a recommendation for a new machine.
Oh, and my reason for two lines of stitching was to make sure the fabric stayed in placed. Pin baste, then long basting stitches. If all that looked fine, then smaller stronger stitches. I like your idea of stitching over the first line, but my machine seems to object to working over extra thread.
