I recently started sewing again. I even had a brainstorm about making sexy nighties and other lingerie for a profit. I am in the process of making samples to take to work to see if I can drum up any orders. But, I'm having a problem with stitching the elastic.
When I try to stitch the elastic to the material, even if just to secure it at a spot in the back of a waist band, the bobbin thread goes crazy. It pulls a ton of thread down from the top and bunches up in an ugly mess from the bobbin side of the fabric. I've had this problem before with this machine. I have a 25 year old Kenmore that stitches beautifully in most other regards. I keep the bobbin area clean. I've tried messing with the tension. I've been told that static may be a problem and have tried some suggestions to reduce static.
Can anyone help???
Thanks,
Caryl
