Anybody good with sewing machines?

i don't think your machine is threaded correctly.

the needle thread may be backwards or something...i'm trying to remember exactly what that means.

i would try rethreading the needles and checking the tension on the thread

Thanks so much Dorian! I will try that and see if it helps.

I was thinking the tension too. Try adjusting it if re-threading doesn't work. Also make sure your bobbin is in correctly. Good luck.

Do you sew often? When was the last time you used it? Re-thread the bobbin as well as the needle, check you are using the right needle size for the material you are sewing (I don't think that's it), COULD be the tension, but it could also need to be serviced...

Just looked back, and you are borrowing it. Hope one of the things we mentioned help!

Thank you all, I did adjust the tension and it worked!
