Hey there....I am a new sewer/quilter/creative mind. I am trying to sew my plastic product bags together for bags, blankets-even tho I haven't made this kind yet-& purses. I have started just by making blocks with my Starbucks coffee bags; the machine is working fine, set to 2-3 stitch lenght, zigzag, tension at 4.5, and I'm cooking along.

Then, like my worst nightmare, the bobbin thread just starts to skip, and gather and stop my progress. :( I was only on the phone for 1/2 hr and it was working before the phone call....and hasn't stitched correctly yet. SIGH.....I haven't rewound my bobbin yet-since that is the cause-but I will try it soon. I even had my huband rethread the machine and try it. Same problem with the bobbin thread. :?:
So, if you can help me, please do.
This is my first brand new machine, bc my others were from goodwill and hand me downs...so I'm super frustrated.
Jennifer.
