Loraine, Check to see if you have your bobbin loaded correctly for the 201 and that your needle is in correctly too. I sometimes forget which way both of them are to go in place, and I then have birdnests.
Also, make sure you're using an older bobbin. The clearance on a 201 is so slight that the rough new bobbins just won't work.
