SOURCE: Top & bobbin thread will not sew

Most likely the needle is in backwards. Weird I know, I have no idea why but if the needle is in wrong, it either hits the bobbin and breaks or won't grab the thread at all. Good luck.

SOURCE: machine does not sew- it does not catch the thread from bobbin

The timing mechanism is likely off. Take off the plastic bobbin case and see if the eye of the needle, on its way up, is just below the metal hook that catch the thread. If not,open the bottom cover with a flat screwdriver, loosen the two 2 mm hex screws, push out and disengage the gears. Adj the hook position by turning left or right so that it is right above the eye of the needle when the needle is on its way up. Tighten the hexes. I also give my machine a good old job with a high grade geese on the gears and light old drop on all moving parts before I close the cover.
Have fun.

SOURCE: Singer Sewing Machine model 9224. Bobbin thread

If you turn the handwheel, can you see a metal ring rotating around the outer edge of the bobbin case? If not rotating, broken gear or timing belt off.
If that ring is turning, remove the needle plate and bobbin case. As this ring now rotates, you will a finger on the ring that will pass behind the needle from right to left and it should catch the thread from the eye of the needle. If this finger, the "hook" passes above the eye, you have a timing problem.

Let me know.

Thread the machine with the presser foot up - this opens the tension for the thread to enter and be controlled as you sew.

Threading with the presser foot down, closes the tension and the thread cannot enter during the threading process and you get loose, loopy stitches that appear to be an issue with the bobbin.

Model 4075 white sewing machine thread from bobbin builds up and stops sewing.

Check the stitching and confirm that it is in fact bobbin thread and not the top thread that is creating knots & loops under the fabric. This is usually the case and is called thread nests or bird nests. (You can search the internet for more information about this symptom.)

Install a brand new needle.
Remove the thread from the machine.
ALWAYS RAISE the presser foot while rethreading the upper thread.
Confirm the thread path is correct.
Verify the bobbin is installed facing the correct direction in the bobbin case and the bobbin case is threaded properly.

Set the upper tension to the midway point (factory standard) although it may need to be tweaked as machines change with use and time.

Pull up the bobbin thread. This method works with general sewing projects, not just quilting.
How and Why to Bring up the Bobbin Thread

Begin to test sew slowly.

If the thread is still making a mess, then the machine most likely has a timing issue. There are multiple web sites and videos that discuss sewing machine timing. Or take it for service.

Should my machine have a bobbin case or do I just drop the bobbin straight in?

the bobbin is the bit that you put the thread on
it then drops /fits in the bobbin case
when you put the bobbin in the case you have to pull the thread around until you find a slot and pull the thread around under a flat spring
then you drop the lot into a bobbin case carrier
go google and type in-- user manual for( make and model) sewing machine and that will give you a site with a pdf version down load on how to basically set up the machine to sew
Other than that take it to a service center for any type of sewing machine and they will probably have any missing parts or be able to get the parts if required

Model 4075 white sewing machine

Are you holding the end of the top thread whilst trying to pickup the bobbin thread? Put a BRAND NEW needle in - it may look OK, buy the slightest bend will be an issue. Is it the CORRECT needle for you machine? - check your manual. Is the bobbin in the case correctly and feeding out the correct direction? ...... timing may be out. Good luck

HOW DO YOU CHANGE FROM ONE COLOUR BOBBIN TO THE PREFILLED NEXT COLOUR BOBBIN

hold thread end w/3" length and put the it in the bobbin case and make sure its unwinding clockwise..Feed thread thru the higher left metal notch and pull to lower left notch and make sure the thread stays behind the spring slot and leave about 4"tail...put bobbin in its place lining up the white dots close the case and turn the wheel to drive down needle holding the needle on the machine base losely and draw the bobbin thread up

Want pick up my bobbin

re-thread the top thread

when putting in the bobbin, make sure you put it in right,

hold the bobbin between you thumb and first finger of your right hand when you pull the thread with left hand it should rotate the bobbin counter clockwise.

If you run your machine all day you need to clean under the bobbin case,

Take the cover plate off, take out the bobbin case and clean under, i take a q-tip with machine oil and rub around the inside of the metal case and around the bobbin case,

replace the plastic bobbin case making sure it's in right, turn the hand wheel by hand, the case should stay still and the inside will move, the needle should not hit anything

put all back together and try again

if the bobbin turns clockwise you are going to have problems

if this helps please rate it
thanks,
good luck
