My sewing machine hates me!

You know, it's been a while since I've had time to get on my sewing machine. I think my machine is now trying to get revenge on me! I had a simple tote bag that should have taken me maybe an hour AT THE MOST and it took me ALL DAY! The needles kept coming unthreaded and jammed. It was just one of those days!

  1. I hate it when my machine doesn't want to cooperate. I hope it behaves better next time!

  3. check the following:
    there isn't any lint stuck in the bobbin area,
    the needle isn't bent/blunt

    and these are the most common user errors to check for:
    the needle is the right size for what you are sewing
    the stitch size is appropriate
    the tension is correct
