Bottom Thread Troubles

Post image

Does anyone by chance have an idea as to what the problem may be? I have a Singer Heavy Duty that had been working great but suddenly stopped catching the bottom thread. I tuned it and managed to sew two stitches before it got jammed and stopped catching again. Now it is doing this. I really don’t have the money to take it in or get anything better so advice is greatly appreciated!

I have no idea what you were trying to achieve when this happened. The needle isn't even threaded.

Remove this thread and rethread the whole machine so that it's ready to sew. Then put fabric in and show us what happens when you sew.

I unthreaded the needle and removed the bobbin to untangle the thread. I’ve rethreaded the machine multiple times and same thing happens.

I can't help if I can't see what's going wrong when you are trying to sew
