I'm new to Noisebridge, and not that knowledgeable in sewing, though im learning, so first of all Hi everyone :) I'll try to come by the Wednesday class/group one of these weeks and hopefully meet some of you.<div>
<br></div><div>I had the same problem last year on my machine when i was sewing faux fur. I ended up changing the needle and all went back to normal (i think the needle either got dull or maybe it bent funny because i was pushing heavy thick fabric through it)</div>

were you using particurally thick thread, and was the auto stitch on?<br><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div class="im">On Wed, Jun 15, 2011 at 7:12 PM, Ashley Lorae Fernandis <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:fernandis06@hotmail.com" target="_blank">fernandis06@hotmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>

I have been working on the sewing machine alllll day trying to figure out whats going on. I sewed probably 2 yards of fabric when the bobbin thread ran out. I pulled the spool out and re threaded it as always, and when I put it back in, the machine stopped working correctly. The top needle goes in, and the thread gets stuck in there and its hard to get the bobbin thread back up. I unthreaded and rethreaded the machine several times, re threaded the bobbin, switched the bobbin around a couple ways, and cleaned the bobbin area.<br>
<br>I'm out of ideas. What am I doing wrong?<br> </div>
