Not sure if this is the right place to ask. but I thought I'd try. I am looking for pre-wound bobbins for my Brother 4500D. Any suggestions? Thanks, Eric

I have bought them from ebay but my machine doesn't like them

I'd like a mail order supplier of prewound bobbins too - I found some in a shop about 20 miles away but it is too far to travel just for them bearing in mind the price of fuel here - another price hike this weekend for us!.I don't know who the manufacturer was I've found they work better in my machine than Brother prewound. I don't have so much puckering, but I do think I may have tension problem with my machine. Jo

I love them ,I was worried at first but found they work out a lot cheaper and less hassell
they have so much more thread on them , less changes and work great .I buy them from local shop in lots of 20 but am going to look for bulk,

I also don't use prewound bobbins. I was told by my machine supplier NOT to use them. *4U

Yes, I was told the same thing.

Sorry Eric, I don't use them. It seems to me to be a bit silly to buy prewound bobbins when I am capable of winding them myself. Also cheaper. I usually wind all my empty bobbins when I have a minute to spare and always have a stack of wound bobbins on hand. Ricky.

I don't use them, but you can probably find them at allstitch.com they have good variety of embroidery supplies and good prices.

Eric, see you got your answer, just make sure that they are the prewound in a plastic cover as the other type seem to catch in the bobbin case.

Hi Eric, I get my prewound bobbins at Ebay. Flower and XoXo

i dont use them either i dont embroider enough to use them lol a little hummor in there

I'm like Shirlener I do not use them but think U got good address to order them & look on ebay Eric *4U

Eric, I haven't bought any of these - because my machine will not allow me to use pre-wound - but look here.

I get mine on ebay, great prices, and they work great.

Eric,
I buy mine at Terradon embroidery. You probably need a class 15 bobbin, and they carry these in white and in colors. The prices are very reasonable.

Take a look at the attached link. I buy things from them including prewound bobbins and have been very satisfied with them. Of course I live fairly close to them so I get the materials in a day or two.
