I've had this problem before. In my case (on my SWF 1501C), the picker needed to be ajusted.

Don't know the correct terminology but...it was not moving back away from the bobbin case after the trim. It was a matter of loosening it a little bit.

You might also adjust your thread trim length on the machine to make it trim the tread to a longer length.

Also, make sure your bobbin tension isn't too tight.

Hope this helps.
