Required Materials
■
Bobbin Case and Bobbin Cover
a
Bobbin case (gray)
This bobbin case is only for bobbin work. The bobbin
case will allow you to sew with thick thread or narrow
ribbon that cannot be inserted through the eye of the
needle. There is a notch at the location indicated by the
letter “A”.
b
Bobbin cover
There are two small v-shaped tabs on the back of the
bobbin cover as indicated by the letter “B”.
The tabs help hold the bobbin in place so it does not lift
up while thick thread is being pulled through.
■
Lower Thread
We recommend the following types of threads for
bobbin work.
* When wide ribbon or heavy weight threads are being used, we
recommend test sewing with and without bobbin case tension
being applied to see which gives the best stitching results.
If wide ribbon such as 3.5mm (approx. 1/8 inch) is to be used,
we recommend that bobbin case tension not be applied. Refer
to page 23 for more detailed instructions.
■
Upper Thread
Upper thread choices can vary depending on the
finished look you would like to achieve. By using
sewing machine embroidery thread (polyester),
multipurpose polyester thread, or monofilament
(transparent nylon) thread the appearance of a single
design can be changed many times just by choosing a
different upper thread weight and/or color.
If you do not wish for the upper thread to be visible, we
recommend using transparent nylon monofilament
thread or polyester light weight thread (50wt. or above)
that is the same color as the lower thread.
■
Needle
Use a needle appropriate for the upper thread and
fabric being used. For details, refer to your machine’s
Instruction and Reference Guide.
