Deb's sewing basket

My Sewing Machine is making a mess in here, what went wrong? It is threaded through the right path?

Below there are all sorts of extra wire and derives (if you pull on it) (which is not supposed to happen) (which is bad). It is a very old singer, but still runs fine in addition to what is happening right now. Yah, it only uses WAY too much wire and cluster below (not the fabric). As I said, everything is threaded correctly. It might have something to do with tension, but I do not know. Thank you for the help!

It could be that a tension is not right, but I rely on what was always wrong * for me *, and fortunately, it is easy to prevent! The trick is to make sure you always keep the tail of your top wire * from the path of the needle * When you start to sew. Otherwise, it can lead us down under the plate Heck and plays underneath, and you end up with a frozen machine and a wad of son screwed to the underside of the fabric. To loosen the wire when this happens, so you can get the tissue far enough to clip screwed over, push the wheel back and forth slightly while pulling gently on the fabric … at least one that works for me. Each push-pull allows little thread to release a bit, until eventually there is enough wire to snip off. (So do not forget to open the can and make sure no excess wire is there, before you start sewing again.) (You can attach the tail of the upper thread after you've taken a few stitches unless you are sewing backwards, if you are sure not to have a chance to get in the way). Wish someone had told me that when I started sewing! ADDED LATER: Someone mentioned the thread to be exact, and that's another thing that happened to me … somewhat over the top jump on the lever thingie that goes up and down … never know why, but it would be a gesture!
