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!!!

1) Make sure your top thread is threaded with the pressure foot in the UP position. I was never taught this, and I know a lot of people weren't. Realizing this has prevented 90% of my intermittent "birds nest" problems. I didn't know the pressure foot and tension discs work on the same mechanism. Lifting the foot opens up the tension discs so the thread can fit between, putting the foot back down closes the discs. Learning this one simple silly thing has saved so many projects.

Another top threading issue, is when you try to thread the machine with the presser foot down. This closes the tension disks making the machine ready to sew, but if the tension disks are closed when you do your threading, the thread misses the tension assembly even though you may have passed it down past there correctly.

Thank you for your video. I just got my machine out again for some living history clothes. Started out fine all of a sudden everything jammed. Cleared out bobbin, then oiled and dusted down around, changed the needle, then I took everything apart to tighten the bobbin cash-out all back together, but still had an issue- but the case didn't rattle around- I pulled the threading out for rereading- which for finally solved the problem, I just couldn't see that the threading jumped out of place.

Excellent video, sir! I'm going to give my old Featherweight another try but take the bobbin case holder out this time and check for burrs from needle strikes. I use my Dremel tool to buff out those burrs. First thing I always try is changing the needle and that fixes the issue at least half the time. I use good needles (schmetz) and buy them by the gross. There are no fabric stores within 30 miles of me, so I hate having to stop a project for common supplies. You've done a great job explaining this, and your videography is wonderfully clear and so helpful! THANK YOU!

Great video. I didn't know about the needle strikes. I'm not sure I have any plastic on my bobbin case, but if I ever have that rat' s nest problem, I'll be sure to look!I've found that sometimes I need to change the brand, type and/ or needle size, or even the weight or thread content. Also using Bottom Line brand thread for the bobbin is a life changer if you can find it. I liked the comment about getting any lint out of the bobbin case. Can also be a tension setting problem, of course. I have a Janome 6500 and it's like any thoroughbred. Everything has to be just right before the race. I've had it for years and love it. Thank you again for your expertise. I'll be back!!!

​@@kathyechano9109Could be a couple of issues. First check your bobbin casing area for any dust or fluff particles as anything that finds it sway to wrap around that area will slow it down. Is it slow ALL the time or sometimes? If your motor sounds like it is struggling I would first suggest give the insides of it a thorough vacuum and if you have NOT given it any maintenance for a while a good cleaning and fresh sewing machine oil on all the elbow joints is warranted. Also, if you have NEVER had the gears checked that is a MUST because those gears MUST have a goo fresh coat of synthetic gear grease to allow it to move smoothly. I cant remember if I have a video on machine maintenance and what to look for when your machine starts slowing down. If I do I will send you that link, if I "don't" I am DEFINITELY making one! I always have a new foot pedal (minus the wiring) that I can attach to a machine like that to see if it is just the foot pedal getting old} a lot of times the contacts inside foot pedals loosen over time and all is needed is to open it up and tighten them back down. I will check on that video of mine and get back with you! Thank you for reaching out!

@@Tashvaldez If when pressing the foot or knee pedal lever, needle not moving, the problem could be a couple of things. Make sure that the bobbin winder is NOT ENGAGED. I am assuming that the hand wheel does not move when you are applying pressure to the foot pedal, so it could be that the lug motor belt needs to be replaced. Another problem could be that the "brushes" inside the motor have worn down and you would need to replace them to ensure a complete circuit of electrical contact.

I have the singer 9960 and had problems w the bobbin case when it was new. There was a slight wobble in it. Turned out the bobbin case had pokes in it wh was catching the thread. The best price I could get on a replacement case for that machine was $99 USD. The machine from Amazon was only $329+tax brand new! The new case was rubber whereas the original was plastic. After I replaced it, no problem and the machine was well used for 8+ yrs now. I guess manufacturers use cheaper parts to keep the cost down but nobody sold the cheap bobbin case as a replacement.🙋

I'm "new" to sewing after about 25 years of occasional repair work. I was looking for tension information, and your video followed another. I like your technique, and it helps me understand why / HOW I completely broke my old machine. Thank you for the detail you provide!

I am amazed right now!! I have been looking for videos on this sewing machine for months! During Covid, I became a mask maker. I had an old machine I picked up from a flea market years ago. Got it out and dusted it off. Got a few hundred done and the machine died. I had a lovely lady give me the Singer Superb!! Brand new! still has the HSN paperwork from 10 years ago! Anywho, I'm new to sewing and can not find one video (besides the HSN advert) on the Superb!!! Please if anyone has a suggestion, let me know! TYIA

This was very helpful. I have just bought my first sewing machine. My experience earlier was limited to hand operated sewing machine, that too decades ago. I am facing some problems like bunching up of the thread. Hopefully I will be able to sort it out next time.

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.

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!

Thanks for this. I’ve been trying to use a generic hopping foot, and a ruler foot, both on my Pfaff 4.2 for quilting, but it just kept missing stitches, especially when hovering. The top thread wasn’t looping around down below. However, I’ve settled back with the free motion foot provided, which doesn’t hop and is little use with a quilting ruler, but it seems happy again. Needed a 90 needle and Gutermans to stop the thread guide above the needle from shredding the thread. It’s been a frustrating afternoon!
