I have a Brother Project Runway sewing machine. The zigzag stitch is only picking up the bobbin thread on the left side, not the right side, resulting in a straight line. Any suggestions? So far I have changed the needle, used a different bobbin, rethreaded top and bottom multiple times, changed thread, and changed the fabric. Help!

Have you checked that you have the stitch width and length set properly to use with a zig-zag stitch? You'd be amazed to hear how many of us forget that part:)
If that isn't your problem, go through your user manual to be sure everything else is properly set and adjusted.
Here's a link to the Brother support pages - scroll through to find your specific model and then grab a free download of your manual:
Thank you. Yes, i have the setting for the zig zag. I have a manual and have done everything it says. By switching to a size 14 needle I got the zigzag working finally, but the decorative stitches still don't work.
Omg I had this same problem to a T, exactly how you described, and after an entire day taking it apart and putting it back together and thinking it was the bobbin, I discovered that (after it coming out) I put. the. needle. in. backwards. The flat side at the top does not face you. I hope this helps!
