    Why is there seam puckering when I sew with my Janome 712T?
    • D
      dvillaAug 31, 2025
      Seam puckering on your Janome Sewing Machine can occur if the needle thread tension is too tight, the needle thread and/or bobbin thread is not threaded properly or the needle is too heavy for the cloth being sewn, or the stitches are too coarse for the fabric being sewn. When sewing extremely lightweight materials, place a sheet of paper underneath the fabric.

    • D
      donnashannonSep 4, 2025
      If stitches are forming loops below the work with your Janome Sewing Machine, the needle thread tension may be too loose, the needle may be either too heavy or too fine for the thread, or the needle thread is not threaded properly.

    Why aren't the buttonhole stitches balanced on my Janome Sewing Machine?
    • C
      crystal36Sep 8, 2025
      If the buttonhole stitches on your Janome Sewing Machine are not balanced, it could be because the stitch length is not suitable for the fabric being sewn, or the work is being pulled or held back. Do not force the fabric for guiding.
