Of course you can, but you may need to adjust the tension. I often use matching thread on the bobbin when making something that the back will show or when making something like potholders where the edges will be seen.

try a test with a scrap piece of material so you can adjust for design and fabric you are using.

You can use your Embr. thread for you bobiin, sometimes it is handy to do so when the design is visable on both sides of the material. for instance, a scarf, towel etc. Good luck
