    Stitches won't stay tight
    Hey I have a Euro Pro X Model # 9120 sewing machine, the stitches won't stay tight even after turning the tensioner knob on top. We also sent it out for repair and maintenance,after a few dresses the problem appeared again. Any Advice?PS the machine is only about two years old!

    Post a pic using "go advanced". I'd like to see how it's threaded. If you can tell me if it's the top or the bottom stitch that's loose.

    I suspect it's not threaded quite right.

    The bobbin also has a tension. Take the bobbin housing out and find the tiny screw on it and tighten just a little until the thread pulls tighter.
