CONSEW CN2053R THE TOP STITCH LOOKS FINE BUT WHEN YOU FLIP IT OVER THE FABRIC AND LOOK AT THE BOTTOM STITCH IT IS LOOSE LIKE LITTLE LOOPS INSTEAD OF TIGHT STITCHS. I HAVE TRYED TO TIGHTEN TE BOBIN SREWS BUT NO CHANGE.
My top thread is pulling thru to the underside..looks like little birds feet tracks on the back of the quilt...help
If the top stitch is loose, then you need to tighten the bobbin tension: if the bottom stitch is loose, tighten the top tension. Hope this helps. It could also be the size needle and thread you are using for a particular fabric. Different fabrics require different notions.
Actually, the majority of recommendations are incorrect. If the bobbin thread is loose, it's because the top thread is not high enough to pull the bobbin thread up.
Tension is a tug of war. Correct tension is when both threads exert equal amounts of pull against each other, the result causes the two threads to meet in the middle of the fabric. In your case, the top thread is exerting zero pull on the bobbin thread so the bobbin thread simply lays on the surface of the fabric. Raise the top tension and see what happens.
I have a Barnett 50 sewing machine and my bottom stitches are very loose . Where do I go to tighten then tension for the under part of the stitches.

bottom stitch is loopy
Make sure the PRESSER FOOT IS DOWN! Oh my gosh, it took me 2 days to figure out why my bottom stitch was loose. It was driving me crazy...then I read the manual :/ I hope that helps!
Wow! Your question takes me back ages! Hope you've found a fix! I have an industrial Consew, so - your bobbin case is loose. Very loose! It seems you know how to tighten your bobbin tension. Just turn it tighter, and check every 1/4 turn, until you get a stitch where top and bottom threads meet in the middle! Cannot believe you've not gotten help in Years! Love my Consew! By my calculations, it sewed 1/4 mile in building a Civil War dress. And it is Fast! Love mine. You seriously need yours to Work!
