Testimonial: "Thanks everyone for the assistance it is very much appreciated."
SOURCE: Bobbin thread breaks
Make sure your bobbin thread is turning clockwise as it sits in the bobbin case. There is a screw on the outside of the bobbin case you can turn with your thumb slightly to adjust tension. If you dangle the case from the thread and give it a light ****, it should move down slightly when doing so-an indicator of good bobbin tension.

SOURCE: Upper thread wraps around bobbin mechanism, while sewing
IT PROBABLY IS THREADED INCORRECTLY. GO SLOWLY BY THE DIAPHRAGM AND MAKE SURE IT IS THREADED CORRECTLY. ALSO MAKE SURE SPOOL PIN HOLDERS ARE IN PLACE THAT HELPS TO GUIDE THE THREAD CORRECTLY.

Wind the Bobbin
For the usual jobs, it is the best to use a medium sized thread.
2. Disengage the flywheel by unscrewing the coupling knob as far as it will go.
3. Place the bobbin on the bobbin winder, and push the bobbin winder to the right.
4. Pull out one of the spool pins and place the spool of thread on it.
5. Pass the thread through the bobbin winder tension discs, as indicated.
6. Wind the end of the thread around the bobbin by hand, in the direction indicated.
7. Wind the bobbin, at a medium speed by pressing lightly with a finger on the spool so as to stretch the thread better and thus fill the bobbin to a maximum. The full bobbin stops automatically.
8. Re-engage the flywheel by tightening the coupling knob.
9. Cut the thread and remove the bobbin from the bobbin winder by pushing the latter to the left.

SOURCE: How to thread a bobbin on a my style 16 janome?
What brand of machine is it - google the brand, model
# and the word manual - if it is older you may be able
to find a free one.- Are you able to wind a bobbin and then have trouble? If that is the problem - make sure you keep your foot on your foot pedal and don't vary your speed at all - you want your bobbin wound evenly. If that is not the problem check with some of your friends who sew because most bobbins are wound the same - or go into a used sewing machine
store with the name of your machine - they should
be able to tell you how to do it or google it -how to wind a bobbin..
