Hello,
I am hoping someone on here can help me. As of Monday I become the proud owner of a mocha Singer 301. But I am haivng problems with her tension. I have done everything I can think of to 'fix' it. I even called the sewing repair man and they START their cleaning and tension adjustments at $69.95! UGH
So I am turning to you all for help.
Here is what I have tried:
.
I have
(1) put in a new needle
(2) re=threaded it several times -left to right
(3) re threaded the bobbin (which is all in great shape!)
(4) bobbin & top thread are the same threads,
(5) cleaned in and around bobbin case and machine
What happens is that once I start sewing the top thread gets REALLY loose and comes un-done from the needle and so I stop. without even making a stitch.
What should I try next?
Tensions is one area on machine I have never been very good at. I usually just take them to a repair man to fix, but last time I had to do that it was only $35.00! I'd prefer to learn how to fix it myself, with yall's help of course.
Thanks everyone! This is my 'new' machine :)
