If it doesnt let out more thread, or isnt easily letting the thread out, its probably too tight. There is a little screw that you can turn to loosen or tighten the tension. The screw on the right is the one you want to turn.
If your bobbin just falls you need to tighten your tension.
Do you have a manuel? It might explain things better than I have. Hope it works out and gets you sewing again. Gina
I actually had thought about that that she possibly could have knocked something out of whack. I took the entire bobbin casing out and put it back in and that didnt seem to help. I will think about the screw. I do have a manual. Just have to remember where I put it. When I find it I will put it in my sewing machine case.
