      Since discovering your videos I have tackled 6 different sewing machines with thread "issues". The BEST one was a woman who was going to THROW OUT her machine because she said it was MAJORLY JAMMED and the hand wheel would NOT BUDGE.So, I went there, she only wanted $15 to avoid THROWING it OUT, took it home and in 25 minutes I had a Brother VX-1120 that WORKS LIKE NEW! Some kind of gooey substance was ALL around the bobbin case and had to be PRIED off GENTLY in order to get all the goo off! But now it went from being a $15 possible piece of trash to an Over $100 Value Piece of TREASURE! Your videos gave me that "little push" I needed to get over my fear I would "break it", AGAIN, THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!

    First.... let me tell you how incredibly happy I am to have found this video. I have taken my machine apart... cleaned the bobbin housing..which wasn't really that dirty... checked the timing... replaced the needle... and bobbin.. Then I saw this video. OMG the only thing that was wrong was that my thread was not hooked over the thread arm... Wow..

    Oh wowwwww. Congratulations 🏆🏆🏆 Very helpful and I truly APPRECIATE your kindness. That was my case. The worst part of it was that the little knob on the bobine holder of my BROTHER COMPAL SOVEREIGN, B R.O K E and I got pretty scared. The thread wasn't going fluidly but got tangled over the bobine and I heard a big jam. Too late. The damage was DONE. I compared my bobines and found my error. In my opinion I think it was because I accidentally put in an ordinary cheap bobine which wasn't meant for my Brother Machine. I've been using my machine since 1990 with the authentic bobine provided. One mistake and distraction and the machine is damaged. Thanks a million for your help. Thanks for sharing caring and making me smile.👍👍👍👍❤️🌹A big hug from your fan in France.

    Amazing tutorial Sir. I learned so much and I am teaching my daughter to sew and can teach her how important knowing the mechanism of the machine is to the sewing itself. I have had this happen and did not know how I fixed it, so probably by chance re threaded the machine properly. Thank you very much.

    I was at my whits end with my machine! Thank you for explaining how to fix it so carefully. Once I took off the foot plate and checked the bobbin holder, I noticed it was full of a ton of lint! One good clean later and it’s sewing beautifully. Thank you.

    • @grandmalovesmebest
      @grandmalovesmebest 2 года назад +2

      Sonia, I know most of us sew till we drop so I made it a habit when i first bought a machine and taught myself to sew that every time I sat down to begin a session of sewing, I thoroughly and carefully cleaned out my machine. I clean in every space my brush can go and run it down the upper thread guides too. So much can go wrong from a tiny piece of lint or a tiny thread caught somewhere it shouldn't be. Happy sewing!

    Yes I bought a new machine and had the same jam you demonstrated, having to take off the bobbin area cover each time to remove the threads, etc. My old machine never had this problem and when it kept happening, I noticed the needle plate had a slightly larger opening for the needle. So if you didn't start your sewing on your fabric well past the edge, it would get jammed every time. Also the bobbin case would get dislocated (never had that before either) and had to reset it so it would not get damaged. The happy ending to this story is I had to get rid of the new machine and reconditioned my old one - just couldn't put up with the constant frustration of the jamming!

    Everything is literally perfect on my machine and it still does this! I’m trying to make a tote bag out of a chicken feed bag and I’m using nylon thread on a 90/14 needle. Stitch length is at 4. I’m using a foot that has extra feed dogs to help grip the material. Do I need a higher tension? It’s pretty low right now but when I got the machine a few years ago, my grandma told me not to mess with it.

    I have had my Sapphire embroidery machine for two years. I had my machine in several times to my repairman with the problem, the pop up window, "rethread top thread," I have done this so much it gets very frustrating. Lots of times my thread will break. or I get the bird nest me, nothing ss. I should take it back to my repair person, after several attempts (while it was on 1 year warranty no results, I use good quality thread, tried several bobbins, several needles, rethreaded several times. I have been sewing for 50 years and have never had a problem that could not be fixed. Any suggestions? Thank you for listening, hope you can help me,

    I purchased a Juki Excite brand new some years ago. I purchased it for quilting and unfortunately
    I can't use it for quilting because it does not handle batting. I can do regular sewing, but quilting
    NO! My Excite sits with little use over the past 13 yrs . I wind up doing QAYG with my Kenmore
    385-19233. I've used my Juki Excite approximately 12-15 times over the past 13 yrs for repairing
    my clothes or just sewing a quilt top. The thread bunches up underneath the fabric. I've changed
    the tension, but when batting is introduced the problem commences. For straight sewing it works
    well. Had I known that this Juki would not be able to be used for quilting I would not have spent
    over $500 for it. I've cleaned the bobbin area, taking out the pieces and removing lint, etc. This
    has been the problem since the beginning.

    The problem I am having the beginning of the stitch the top thread will be loose but the rest of the stitch will be fine I always have to go back and pull the beginning of the top the to tighten it when I never had to do this before. So if i backward stitch then forward stitch it creates a loop of thread on the bottom because the first thread is not tight.
