Sewing Machine

posted by genella on Jan 03, 2008


I have my machine threaded correctly but when I try to sew the needle goes through the cloth and goes a stitch then seeps to pull up like three threads under the cloth and wads up and wont go.

the problem was discovered to be the thread was incorrectly fed through from the top tension disk to the take up lever. Which caused it to not have the correct tension.
I have the same problem

Make sure that when you thread the machine up the presser foot is up and make sure the thread goes between the tension discs and not to one side, top tension between 4 and 6, make sure you have the bobbin in the correct way round, bobbin turning anti clockwise, make sure the needle is in the right way round, flat side to the back.
