    I got the same eyelash problem today. Mine was the bobbin thread not threaded right in the machine.

    My machine was making a lot of noise when I sewed and one day when my daughter was here, I asked her about it. She said the bobbin area needed cleaning. I could not believe how much stuff she got out of there! It was so tightly packed, it looked like felt! Now it sews quietly and like a dream. Try it.

I tried rethreading it tried the tension and nothing seems to be working. There are a few stitches on the front of the fabric and a big eye brow looking thing on the back again. Please do any of you know what the banging and the eyebrow stitches could be caused by and how to fix it?
    Clean it!!

    You could also try and use a different foot, one that has a clearance cutout if you are sewing over quite a few seams at a time.
