Upper Thread Breaks!!!

While sewing, my machine makes two loud clicks and then my upper thread breaks. I have tried fixing the tension, but do not know what else to do. This happens almost immediately when I start sewing.

Hi, here are some reasons why the thread is breaking :-)

  • Threading is not correct.
  • Thread has a knot in it.
  • Thread tension is too tight.
  • Needle is bent or blunt or has a sharp eye.
  • Needle is wrong size.
  • Needle has been inserted wrong.
  • Needle and thread does not match.
  • Starting to stitch too fast.
  • Thread take-up lever has not been threaded.

  • Hope this helps.
