CREATING BOBBIN WORK

Required Materials

■ Bobbin case and bobbin cover

a Bobbin case (gray)

There is a notch at the location marked by “A”.

b Bobbin cover

There are ribs “B” on the back of the bobbin cover.

The ribs press down the bobbin so it is not lifted out

when thick thread is being fed from it.

■ Lower thread

We recommend the following types of threads for

bobbin work.

* If ribbon is to be used, we recommend that tension not be

applied. Refer to page 6 for more detailed instructions.

■ Upper thread

Sewing machine embroidery thread (polyester thread)

or monofilament (transparent nylon) thread.

If you do not wish for the upper thread to be visible, we

recommend using 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. Refer to “Fabric/Thread/Needle

Combinations” (in the chapter “CHANGING THE

NEEDLE”) in the Operation Manual.

■ Presser foot

Utility stitches or decorative stitches: Monogramming

foot “N”

Free-motion sewing: Free-motion quilting foot “C”,

Free-motion open toe quilting foot “O” or Free-motion

echo quilting foot “E”

■ Fabric

Be sure to sew trial stitches on a piece of scrap fabric,

which includes the same threads and fabric as what is

being used in your project.

No.5 or finer hand embroidery

thread or decorative thread

Flexible woven ribbon

Fine embroidery ribbon (silk or

silk-like material) (3.5 mm (approx.

1/8 inch) or less, recommended)

Note

• Do not use thread heavier than No.5 hand

embroidery thread.

• Some threads may not be appropriate for bobbin

work. Be sure to sew trial stitches before sewing on

your project.

Note

• The sewing results may be affected by the type of

fabric used. Before sewing your project, be sure to

sew trial stitches on a piece of scrap fabric that is

the same as the fabric used in the project.
