This foot also helps to ensure that the fabric remains straight and the blade can cut it off correctly. The presser foot is there to keep the fabric in place while you to stitch it. If this is happening, it could be that you forgot to lower the presser foot. Fabric Not Staying StillĪnother common issue is that the fabric keeps jumping or shifting when you try to stitch. You need to make sure before you begin to stitch that you thread the needle with a few inches of thread on the other side of it – a tail, if you like. You need to keep in mind that the needle is going to move up as it starts to sew so there needs to be a tail of thread that is long enough to not pull out when the needle moves up.ĬraftyMummy Tip: I often use my overlocker tweezers to pull the thread through at the back where it is hard to get my fingers in. The important thing is to not worry more than necessary about this. When you are trying to thread the needle and then it becomes unthreaded, it can ruin your focus and be very irritating. This is one of the most common problems you will come across, and it can happen to one or both of your needles. Let me share some handy tips for troubleshooting the most common issues that happen when you are new to using an overlocker.
