Baby Lock 1500 Sewing Machine bobbin problem?
GrdnBukay asked:
The bobbin thread on my machine looks like a zig zag stitch when I am straight stitching. The top thread looks great. It has been in for the same repair 2 years in a row and each time the technician declares the problem is solved and it is for about 9 mos. Now it has started all over again. I'm very reluctant to take it back to the Baby Lock repair shop, as you can well imagine. Any ideas? Btw, done the new needle, fuzzies out, oil and reg. home maintenance things right along.

I had the same problem, and it turned out I wasn’t threading the bobbin correctly. Read the section about bobbin winding in your manuel.

try tightening the top stitch tension slightly

Two things… Adjust just slightly the top tension one way tighter and if that doesn’t work try slightly the other way looser. Then do the same way with the little screw on the bobbincase tension. Like a clock. Just slight adjustment each way. It will take some time but eventually you’ll get it.
Another thing that can cure this is presser foot pressure. Try a little less and if that doesn’t work try a little more.
Hopefully your using matching thread weight also.
Good luck
