Sewing machine tension is a delicate tug of war between the bottom Bobbin tension and the Upper tension to put the loop between the 2 layers of fabric. You set the Bobbin tension first and the the top tension depends on the fabric and the thread used.
Your Bobbin tension is very very loose to be not tensioning at all or the top tension is too loose.
first, check out the needle, you may need to insert a new one, then the tension and thread for the material you are sewing and make sure that the thread is not too old and that the same thread is in the bobbin and the thread on top. :-)
Are you using old thread? Is the needle threaded correctly, is the thread the same in the bobbin as the top. Are the thread and needle the correct size for the material? Is the stitch length and tension correct for the material? :-)
when you put he bobbin in the holder make sure that the thread is coming out the right way , slide it down the slot and under the spring and leave about a foot of thread out
for beginners it is advisable to join a local sewing club as practical experience is a fast way to learn
go google and type in-- operators manual for janome 2008 sewing machine --- down load a site that has a pdf version and it will have all the information that you will need
try changing the needle rethread the machine top & bobbin make sure to use every thread guide make sure the bobbin is not over wound make sure the bobbin is turned the right way in the bobbin case make sure the bobbin is not warped or damaged if you've done all these things then it's also possible that the machine is out of time & needs to be checked at a repair shop
BRAND new Janome 1420qdc. New needle, doesn’t need oil. Will NOT wind a bobbin. Used almost an entire spook of thread doing this. At my wits end. HELP!
manuals can be purchased @ janome. com. your machine should have a bobbin winder. Set empty bobbin on the bobbin winder pin. Thread spool of thread though guide(or tension wheel on the top of the machine;NOT the stitching tension.) wrap thread around bobbin to start, and push bobbin toward the flywheel. slowly press foot pedal and bobbin should begin to turn. apply more pressure to foot pedal to increase speed.When full, bobbin winder should kick back to stop.
