When I have something like this happen my first plan of attack is make sure my machine is threaded correctly as sometimes threads can mysteriously pop out of tension disks. Next thing, remove the bobbin and clean. I try stitching again, if it isn't perfect I put in a new needle. I am floored at how many times I have put in a new needle and end up throwing it away and changing it again and then things work perfectly. I too have switched threads and bobbins. So far these things have worked for me on the machines I have now. :-D
