Everything in the bobbin case moves. I've re-threaded both top and bobbin several times. If any of you have any suggestions I'd really appreciate.

Thanks,

Check and see if your needle is loose and/or may have slipped down a bit. Maybe that would be enough to mess up the timing of the top thread connecting with the hook below.
