Machine Bobbin-work and Fabric Texture



Chat of the Month!  
Using heavy threads in your sewing machine is possible and beautiful!  Thread them on the bobbin and sew on the wrong side of the fabric.
  • Using heavy threads in the bobbin:
  • Wind the bobbin slowly and evenly by holding your finger around the tension disk. 
  • Do not fill bobbin all the way. 

  • Purchase an extra bobbin case.  
  • Loosen the tension screw.
  • Mark the case so you know it is for thicker threads.
  • Slide thread into slot pulling it toward you and then up into the spring.  Be sure bobbin rotates freely - If not pull bobbin out of case and thread it again.  
  • Sew on the WRONG side of the fabric.


 
  • A 8" X 10" fabric will make a new front for your Cross Talk Cell Carrier. 
  • Steam for texture.
