My machine is unthreading when I begin to sew a seam.

This is the most frustrating part of sewing with a sewing machine but is easily rectified when you know how!
When you finish a row of stitching, use the needle up button or the kick back function on your foot control. This means you have completed a whole stitch and ready to begin a new one.
Taa Daa!
No more unthreaded needles!

Alternatively, you can remember to keep hold of the threads for the first few stitches every seam.


My thread is nesting in the bobbin area.

My zigzag or decorative stitches crumples the fabric.
