I have to rethread my machine and the bobbin sometimes more than once before it gets right again. I have thought of throwing it out the window, but can't afford either the new window or a new machine.

Check the top thread to make sure it is threaded correctly.

I had the same problem with my Kenmore. I had to adjust the bobbin tension. Even though the Kenmore lady said never touch that. The book does not tell you which ones to turn and which way. You just have to be brave and play with it .
