Stitch getting hung up, fabric loose on hoop

I received the Husqvarna Viking Iris 600 as a gift 8 years ago, and I'm onl= y now beginning to really use it. =20



The ready-to-go embroidery cards, which I plug directly into my machine, se= em to work fine, at least electronically. But today when I tried out one o= f the designs, the stitching started out fine but then started to get slopp= y and the needle seemed to get stuck in one section of the fabric and would= n't move on. =20



The tension and stitch length were all set to normal. When I took it off t= he machine, I noticed the fabric wasn't taut on the hoop. It seems it had = loosened the fabric as it stitched. How do you combat this?



And, is there any other reason it might be doing this, besides the loosenin= g fabric?
