Thank you for the common sense reminders. I just went through cleaning out my machine and was ready to throw it out the window, because it wouldn’t sew right. I finally rethreaded it, and now it works fine. Sewing 101. Duh.
Hello! Another fun chat to listen to while I hand quilt! I just want you to know how much I enjoy your channel's content. I hope you have a cheerful week ahead! Thank you for sharing this video and your time.
All excellent tips. I especially like the way you explain how to be sure we are putting our bobbins into our machines correctly. The number six illustrations is a great one and easy to remember.
Just subscribed. Great video. I have a friend who had the tension on her machine set incorrectly. Having sewn for a long time, I can tell when the tension is wrong by pulling the thread. I was able to fix that for her. Another friend never cleaned her machine and was having trouble. I explained to her over the phone what to do and her machine works fine now!
Welcome! Cleaning and tension are definitely issues that come up a lot. We are so glad you were able to help your friends with their machines! Thanks so much for watching and we hope to see you again soon!🎉🙌🎈
Good information. Thank You T I never used # 6 for bobbin I use the Letter P makes more sense to me! You are sew right, I was cleaning my 2450 I was tired I knew to wait but then it froze could not get the late back off!! Grrrr 👿 I was tired, covered him up went back after sleep and fixed it!
I just sat here and laughed for 2 minutes because I quit sewing after I kept getting a birds nest 🙃 cleaned the machine. New needle. Yeah, please rethread 😅
Thank you, it helps to remember the basics! My machine trouble shooting mantra is take a deep breath and "TNT"...Thread, Needle, Tension...in that order. I have added make sure I'm rested to the list.
Great tips.... another common cleaning issue is the lint in the bobbin area. Super simple to clean, but very necessary! Especially after sewing velvet, Minky or flanellette...
Thank you, Teancum! I guess I need to replace my needle. I have that thumping sound going on now. No issues with my thread or my bobbin. And yes, I would rather have my machine at home with me than sitting on a rack waiting to have a check-up. ;0)
Also, I had a Janome that would not reverse. A, Janome My Excel 4023. If you have time, I would love to see a video of repairing that issue! New subscriber... I love your content! I am also a new and upcoming sewer.
@@SewYeah I have yet to tear into mine. I was patching my husbands' jeans and now the needle won't even hold one stitch. So frustrating. There is no repairman for many miles. my machine is a Janome hd 1000. Where do I look for the problem??
i have a serger that all the tension dials have to be on 7 or 8, when they should be normally at 3. how can that be fixed? also, i have a new issue that just started and the thread for my left needle keeps popping out of the tension disks constantly...like every 15 inches of sewing. the tension is not too high, if i put it any lower the thread is loose. what is causing this? it might be related to the first issue with all the tension disks too loose. my machine is a janome 234d. where i live its minimum 200 bucks just to get a machine serviced, and that doesnt include any repairs, just the basic service.
After some experiments of stitching, my needle didn’t move. I took bobbin out and start moving the handwheal . Now hand wheal doesn’t move too. My machine is Singer 2277
I check the take -up lever and I still get birds nest , if I rethread the whole machine it works fine for a bit then get a birds nest again, any suggestions? Th.
I have a Elna 6004 machine. The display screen says overload & the machine stops sporadically. I have done all the usual things. Do you know what might cause this?
Is their anyway at home to fix a bobbin winder on a singer 5040c I had the machine given to me and the bobbin winder wont lock in place to wind it.If I hold it in place it will wind the bobbin but this is not what I really want to do.

Old thread naturally degrades, and it will snap easier and more often while you're sewing. We recommend Aurifil thread, it comes in a ton of colors and will last you so much longer than the old spools.
I am disabled so I am having trouble getting to my main machine. I bought a mini sewing machine. Nightmare. I think it only takes diddy cotton reels. I can't stop the thread from breaking. I rethreaded many times. I can pull the reel until the needle is threaded. Then it will not budge. What (probably daft) thing am I doing wrong? I am not sure if any other better quality reels will fit a mini machine. HELP!!!!😮
What if my tension disk housing keeps falling out of my machine? 😳 I keep putting it back in and tightening it down real tight, but over time it falls out again.
We are sorry you are having trouble with your machine. You will need to reach out to our Repair Dept. by coming by the store with your machine, or reaching out to a dealer closer to you . We can't answer these questions in the chat.
Hey every make and model and be a little different but normally that error code is that the needle plate isn’t down all the way or that your upper thread check spring is broken or has been missed in threading. Try read threading and taking off the needle plate and putting it back on and if that doesn’t fix it then I would recommend taking into a tech near you
Ive set my sewing machine up but when i sew it doesnt sew?? Like the needles moving and everything but when i look at my fabric theres no stiches done. What can i do???
Machine. Usha.Delux. 1960 s model. Stilluding. But now it makes the noise....KHAAD..KHAAD. and the bobin dosent makes a click sound while it is fixed in the case....this used tobe indication of ok .. fitted.
done, that page that pops up when people click the main subscribe button should be adjusted, think a great number of people are apt to just move on instead of asking about it, think your numbers would skyrocket with just the one click
I was disappointed bcz I thought I was going to see repairs here. I have to keep my Elna Explore 340 on Tension no.2 bcz the tension dial is too tight. I want to REPAIR it. Tension dial should be average on 5 or 4.5 How can I loosen the tension INSIDE the machine so I can sew on tension 5 please?
Hahahaha! You literally solved all of my issues. Thank you, I'll be watching more of your videos.
Love to hear it!

What cause the tread to come off the take-up lever , lately I’ve been having to retread all the time . Thx
It's hard to say without looking at the machine. Could be several reasons
now a days do machines need to be oiled
Hello! Yes your machine will still need to be oiled. Refer to your machine's manual to determine how often to oil. Thanks for watching!
Thanks great help
Glad it helped!

Tension too loose on top??
I have a Elna 6004 machine. The display screen says overload & the machine stops sporadically. I have done all the usual things. Do you know what might cause this?
You will have to bring it in for the tech to look at it.
Is their anyway at home to fix a bobbin winder on a singer 5040c I had the machine given to me and the bobbin winder wont lock in place to wind it.If I hold it in place it will wind the bobbin but this is not what I really want to do.

im a new to sewing since i inherited a sewing machine and have no clue on what is good and bad thread is. can you explain in simple terms?
there is alot of old fuzzy thread in kit. i should just probably just throw the old fuzzy cotton thread away
Old thread naturally degrades, and it will snap easier and more often while you're sewing. We recommend Aurifil thread, it comes in a ton of colors and will last you so much longer than the old spools.
What about the letter P method for putting in the bobbin?
Not sure I know about the letter P method🧵🪡
@@SewYeah some bobbins go in with thread like a p and some go in like a 6 I remember sewing years ago on machine that bobbin went in like letter p.
I am disabled so I am having trouble getting to my main machine. I bought a mini sewing machine. Nightmare. I think it only takes diddy cotton reels. I can't stop the thread from breaking.

#5 - when I got my new (to me) machine - they said "make a p for perfect bobbin"
🙌😀Great tip! Thanks for watching!
I was disappointed bcz I thought I was going to see repairs here. I have to keep my Elna Explore 340 on Tension no.2 bcz the tension dial is too tight. I want to REPAIR it. Tension dial should be average on 5 or 4.5
How can I loosen the tension INSIDE the machine so I can sew on tension 5 please?
We can't answer that here. I'm sorry
I find that I make 90 percent of my mistakes when I am tired.
So true! Thanks for watching!
How about serger? Haven't seen anything related to oiling or caring for a serger! Any suggestions?
Maybe soon!!
