  The needle thread might break on your Janome Sewing Machine due to several reasons. It could be that the needle thread isn't threaded correctly, or the tension is too tight. Other potential causes include a bent or blunt needle, incorrect needle insertion, improper thread placement at the start of sewing, failure to draw fabric to the rear after sewing, or using thread that's too heavy or fine for the needle.

  A needle might break in your Janome Sewing Machine for several reasons. Check if the needle is correctly inserted and not bent or blunt. Also, ensure the needle clamp screw isn't too loose and that you're using the proper foot. Avoid drawing the fabric to the rear when finishing sewing, and make sure the needle isn't too fine for the fabric you're sewing.
