00:00what is a bobbin types of bobbins and how to win a bobbin is all we are going to be
00:08covering
00:09in today's video hi my name is oliva and welcome to threads in progress
00:25have you ever tried sewing and end up with loose red fabric puckling red puckling under your fabric
00:35or messy stitches 80 of that problem is caused by your bobbin so take time while threading your
00:46machine and take time while winding your bobbin because these two threads are going to interact
00:54to form a stitch and for smooth sewing all you need to do is take time while winding your bobbin
01:03and threading your machine types of bobbins and we are going to differentiate these by material
01:12so the first bobbin is the plastic bobbin and the second bobbin is the metal bobbin the plastic
01:21bobbin is usually very clear and it is very good for beginners because you can work while observing
01:30how much thread is left on your bobbin so this plastic bobbin is literally lightweight is a for
01:39beginners and it is very common in modern machines metal bobbins are more strong and more durable these
01:49are most of the times used in older machines industrial machines or heavy duty machines so i hope this will
01:59not confuse you if your machine has a plastic bobbin it's very okay and if it has a metal bobbin
02:07it is very okay another key difference is by the size take note not all bobbins are the same size
02:17we can
02:18differentiate these bobbins by their sizes so we have class 15 bobbins and we have class 66 bobbins
02:29class 66 bobbins are more of curved and a bit of round not so rounded but a bit curved class
02:3915 bobbins
02:40are just flat so that's how you can differentiate between these bobbins if you use the wrong size of
02:49the bobbin in your machine these are the bobbin in your machine these are the problems you may face
02:54while using the wrong size of the bobbin under your machine it can cause puckling of thread under your fabric
03:02it can cause messy stitches or even uneven stitches so please follow your machine menu and your bobbin size to
03:12prevent
03:12these problems and another difference is by the machine type so we have two different types of
03:20machines and there are two main systems we have the drop-in bobbin that's top loading these are usually
03:28using plastic bobbins inserted from the top of the machine easy to use and perfect for beginners and
03:37another type of a machine we have is the flaunt loading bobbin inserted from the top uses a removable
03:45bobbin case and common in older machines now let's go to the most important part how to wind a bobbin
03:54if you wind it incorrectly your stitches will be bad no matter what you do step one place your thread
04:02on
04:03the spool pin and make sure it sits securely on top of your machine so you should secure your thread
04:10before
04:11anything else so the second step is you're guiding your thread to the first thread guides pull the thread
04:18and pass it through the first thread guides most machines have a tension disc for this it's like
04:26you're threading your machine but you're going to actually stop on the way and wind your bobbin
04:33step 3 insert the empty bobbin place your empty bobbin on the bobbin winding pin or the bobbin winding spander
04:43step 4 is securing your bobbin after you have placed your empty bobbin now push the bobbin to the side
04:51until it clicks into position this tells your machine it's ready to wind when you push it this side it
05:01automatically tells your machine it is time to wind the bobbin so this whole system is automatic
05:09step 5 start winding you now hold the thread tail and press the foot pedal
05:15after pressing the foot pedal the machine will start winding after a few rounds
05:21you can cut the remaining thread and continue winding until your bobbin is full when your bobbin is full
05:30the next step is you stop most machines stop automatically but if your machine doesn't stop
05:38automatically you will have to just stop remove your thread remove your bobbin from your bobbin winding
05:46spander and cut the thread the next step is how to insert a bobbin into your machine always turn off
05:56your sewing machine and to raise your needle and press a fold turn the hand wheel towards you and this
06:04will raise your needle to the highest point lift the presser foot this creates space and proper tension
06:12setup step 3 open the bobbin area this depends on your machine type you remember when we were talking
06:20about top loading machines or drop-in bobbins if you have a top loading machine all you need to do
06:29is
06:29slide and open the clear cover on top of the needle plate that is where you are going to insert
06:37your
06:38bobbin if you have a front loading machine open the small door in front and pull out the bobbin case
06:47step 4 insert the bobbin place the bobbin so the thread spins and clockwise wrong direction wrong
06:56threading step 5 pull the thread through the slot and then guide it under the tension spring
07:05leave about 4 inches of thread step 6 place the bobbin case back this is for front loading only hold
07:14the
07:14launch insert the bobbin case until it clicks into place slide or snap the cover step 8 is bring up
07:23the
07:23bobbin thread hold the top thread and turn the hand wheel towards you pull until the bobbin thread comes up
07:31and push all threads to the back final checks check both threads are under the pacer foot
07:41and check if both threads are pulled to the back of the machine now you are ready to sew and
07:50these are
07:50common beginner mistakes bobbin inserted in wrong direction thread not intention slot middle not
07:59raised or forgetting to bring up the bobbin thread if your thread keeps sparkling underneath your fabric
08:0890 percent of the time it's your bobbin not inserted correctly common mistakes while winding your bobbin
08:18bobbin using the wrong bobbin size overfilling the bobbin or winding thread too loosely not following the thread guides
08:30so always avoid these mistakes the common beginner mistakes while inserting the bobbin is
08:43bobbin inserted in wrong direction thread not intention slot or needle not raised forgetting to bring up the bobbin thread
08:53if your thread keeps sparkling underneath your fabric 90 percent of the time it's your bobbin not inserted correctly
09:01or your machine not threaded right i have a video about how to thread a sewing machine the link is
