    hi guys, I have got a toyota spb15 sewing machine, been working perfectly until today while i was using it my phone rang, startled me and something happened my machine...

    I have narrowed the problem down to the bobbin case, (It is a plastic case in my machine) for some reason the bobbin is turning the whole way around and the needle is getting stuck in it!

    I have tried taking it out and re-positioning it but to no avail! Can anyone help???? Maybe i just need to get a new bobbin case but i dont know where to get it! PLEASE HELP! :(

    It might be your needle not your bobbin.

    I have a side loading brother so not sure I understand exactly whats happening to your machine but if my needle goes blunt or has a chip it wont pick up the bobbin thread. Maybe you jolted the machine when your phone rang and it the needle broke a little bit ? Try changing the needle before trekking looking for bobbins. Needles and bobbins are available in any good craft / habby shop.
