Why is my Janome 419S Sewing Machine skipping stitches?
If your Janome Sewing Machine is skipping stitches, several factors could be at play. Ensure the needle is correctly inserted and is neither bent nor worn; if it is, replace it. Double-check that the machine is threaded correctly. Verify that you're using the appropriate needle and thread for the fabric. A #11 blue tip needle may also resolve the issue.
What to do if the fabric is not moving on my Janome 419S?
If the fabric isn't moving through your Janome Sewing Machine, check the feed dog height. Also, ensure that both the needle and bobbin threads are positioned under the foot before you start sewing. If the feed dog teeth are worn, consider replacing the feed dog.
