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

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.

Thanks so much. I love this site because of such quick responses. Love it, love it. Thank you, flowers to you. Oh yeah what tension should I use?

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