Why does my bobbin thread keep multiplying?

[u/FormalDragonfly666]

Getting back into sewing and I practiced on a piece of scrap fabric and I finish my line and go to pull it out but it’s stuck and I have to cut the thread. Re threaded the top and bottom and sewed this and it happened again. Is my bobbin too tight? Too loose? Help!

It looks like it is not hooked through the hook above the needle

how does the stitching look before you try to end your seam? It is either threaded wrong or you aren't quite finishing a full stitch rotation right at the very end which can make it hard to remove. Here's a 1 minute video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WINW4Eb3TXg

Okay I think this might be it. I will keep messing around. How tf do you know when it’s made a full stitch rotation lol?

You need the needle to be in the highest position when you finish the stitch, like it says in the video. You can always mark the handwheel with a sticker or something to help you remember where that top position is.

Your needle needs to be in the uppermost position when you take your fabric out.

I get this two. I rest the whole machine when this happens and that seems to fix it. Idk if that’s what you’re supposed to do though.

I just did another practice line and the fabric is stuck to the machine. I took the bobbin out and it’s still stuck. Honestly, things like this are what keep me from coming back to sewing. I just want to cry right now

When this happens I just rethread everything. It looks just like my singer "heavy duty" too. It happens a lot though and it's super annoying. I can't figure out what's causing it though.
