I finally had to take my machine to be serviced. I don't know what all they did, but it is fixed at the cost of $98.

I have the same thing happening to me. I checked my tensions and so on. I watched a video where the guy was saying to put the thread between disk 2 and 3. (I was putting it between disk 1 and 2 before) i was having mass loops on the bottom. I tried between 2 and 3 disk and did one seem with no problem then ran out of the thread i needed. But didn't have any loops. I want to also know why this happens

While sewing along a nice straight line the thread bunches, I look at the thread path and it is out from between the tension disks or not on the spring or the bobbin thread is out from under the tension. I do not understand what "machine gremlin" is attacking me.
