I reloaded my bobin and began to sew. The thread got all bunched up under the fabric and the machine wouldn't let me sew any more. When I took the fabric away there was a mass of thread coming from by the bobin. After I clean this up and try sewing again, it happens again. Ughhh... What am I doing wrong?
Sometimes it may look like the bobbin is the problem, when it is actually the machine was threaded with the presser foot down.
Refer to the manual for your machine and recheck the direction the thread is be feeding from the bobbin and that it is going through the proper guide(s).
Always thread a sewing machine with the presser foot up.
When threaded with the foot down, the tension is closed and the thread cannot enter. When you sew, the stitches are loose and loopy.
When this happens to me it usually is because I was to quick and missed the arm that lifts your thread to give it the proper slack needed for the next stitch,, try rethreading
or the bobbin is in backward check to see which thread is bunching to top on the bobbin.
