How to fix skipped stitches on Janome 5270QDC Sewing Machine?
- M
  mike46Aug 14, 2025
  Skipped stitches can occur if the needle is incorrectly inserted, bent, or blunt, so reinsert or replace the needle. The needle and/or threads may not be suitable for the fabric, so use suitable needle and threads. If you are sewing stretch, very fine fabrics, and synthetics, use a blue tip needle. Also, the needle thread might not be threaded properly, so re-thread it. Finally, a poor-quality needle could be the cause, so use a higher quality needle.

Why does the bobbin thread break on my Janome 5270QDC Sewing Machine?
- R
  Robert WeaverAug 17, 2025
  The bobbin thread may break if it is not threaded properly in the bobbin holder, so re-thread the bobbin. Lint may have collected in the bobbin holder, so clean it. The bobbin could be damaged and not turn smoothly, so change the bobbin. Also, the thread might be wound loosely on the bobbin; ensure the thread is wound tightly.

  Your machine might not work if it is not plugged in, so plug in the machine. Thread could be caught in the hook race, so remove the caught thread. The bobbin winder spindle might not be returned to the left after bobbin winding, so return the bobbin winder spindle to the left.

Why is my Janome Sewing Machine not feeding fabric smoothly?
- M
  Michael GreeneAug 25, 2025
  The fabric might not feed smoothly because the feed dog is packed with lint, so clean the feed dog. The stitches may be too fine, so make stitch longer. Alternatively, the feed dog might not be raised after “drop feed” sewing, so raise the feed dog.

Why does the needle thread keep breaking on my Janome 5270QDC?
- C
  Cindy StewartAug 28, 2025
  The needle thread may break due to several reasons: it might not be threaded properly, so re-thread the needle. The tension could be too tight, requiring an adjustment. The needle might be bent or blunt, in which case you should replace it. It's also possible the needle is incorrectly inserted, so reinsert it. Make sure the needle and bobbin threads are set under the presser foot before you start sewing. Finally, the thread might be too heavy or fine for the needle, so use appropriate thread.

  Paul AlvarezAug 31, 2025
  If the needle breaks, it might be incorrectly inserted, so reinsert it. The needle clamp screw could be loose, so tighten it. Ensure the threads were drawn to the rear after sewing. The needle may also be too fine for the fabric; use a needle suitable for the fabric. Finally, make sure you are using an appropriate presser foot.

What causes seam puckering on my Janome 5270QDC and how to fix it?
- R
  Rebecca YuSep 4, 2025
  Seam puckering can be caused by several factors. The needle thread tension might be too tight, so adjust it. The needle thread might not be threaded properly, so re-thread the needle. The needle could be too heavy for the fabric, so use a lighter needle. The stitch length might be too long for the fabric, so make stitch shorter. Finally, a stabilizer might not be used when sewing very fine fabrics, so apply a stabilizer.

What to do if my Janome 5270QDC is not sewing buttonholes properly?
- R
  Rachel LewisSep 7, 2025
  If buttonholes aren't sewing properly, the stitch density may not be suitable for the fabric, so adjust the stitch density. Interfacing might not have been used for stretch or synthetic fabric, so apply an interfacing. Also, the buttonhole lever might not be lowered, so lower it.
