Why is my Janome Sewing Machine not sewing?
The needle is the most likely culprit when it comes to skipped stitches. The design of the needle is crafted to meet the bobbin thread in a correctly timed machine and form a stitch. The machine might need cleaning around the feed dog. Re-thread the top and the bobbin.
Why is my machine not stitching?
First, your needle may be dull or damaged and needs to be replaced. You should also check that you are using the correct needle for the type of fabric you are sewing. If the needle is not inserted correctly, it will not be able to pull up the bobbin thread and will cause skipped stitches.
How do you adjust the tension on a manual sewing machine?
You should see a small screw on the flat/closed side of the bobbin case. Turning the screw a tiny bit counterclockwise will loosen the bobbin tension; turning it clockwise will tighten the tension.
