I am sure you have seen this before, but every time I sit to sew, I wind at least one or two bobbins, depending on how big my project. I know it is such a simple thing, but I hate stopping and having to rewind my bobbin.

Also, if my bobbin does end in the middle, I add the second thread thingy to my machine, and take a new thread to wind the bobbin. That way the machine stays threaded.

	Dale C said... Good idea. Sometimes I buy 2 spools and just keep using one for bobbin thread. I do a lot of sewing anyway so extra thread colors are handy. 2/10/03 2:41 PM
