I was helpless thinking I should need to send my machine to be fixed! You are a crack! Nobody talks about this simple troubleshooting tension solution. Thank you
If it doesn't work, you can fix the bobbin tension on this machine (and all Singers with the same bobbin case) by turning the tiny screw on the left side of the casing a quarter of a turn. That will tighten the tension on the case itself.
I’m so glad this was the first video that popped up. I had been sewing all day and it was fine. Then I changed thread and it was terrible. I couldn’t figure it out. I thought it had something to do with the fact I had just finished doing buttons holes. I was thinking I was going to have to take it out for maintenance. Thank you so much.
If this method doesn’t work, try tightening the tension on the bobbin case!! I had this issue so for me the bottom thread was too loose, hence the top stitch going straight and the bottom stitch being the only zig zag. Try this if it looks like the bottom thread is being pulled towards the top of the cloth!
Look at how perfect the stitches are on the paper tho lol omg I’m gonna use paper under my projects when i sew now so I don’t have to use up my tear away
Oh, for heavens sake. I’ve never had this happen before, but the bobbin on my machine really did slip out of the slot...or I screwed up putting it in in the first place. Thank you!
