stitches won't lock on Singer
#1
Need help yall. My vintage singer is sewing smooth as can be. BUt the stitches won't lock. I've tried several times to get the bobbin thread to swirl around when the needle thread comes down. But it just ain't gonna happen. THe needle thread just goes straight down and nothing else. Help please

What model do you have. Some models like the Featherweight and the 15 the needle flat side goes to the left (not the back of the machine) The needle is threaded from right to left or inside to the outside. Maybe this info will help.

i had this happen and my problem was the bobbin, although i thought it was the correct bobbin for the model and fit in the case without any problems it would not stitch.
once i put in another bobbin it worked great.
