A tip for you people *** I bought some new bobbins the other day, and when I used one, my embroidery messed up… <<< more inside >>>

<<< continued >>> I checked the bobbin was correctly inserted, and tried again, still problems. Then I noticed the bobbin had a sharp edge, which didn’t seem like enough to cause any problems, but when I filed it smooth the problem disappeared. So check your bobbins, folks. Hugs, flowers and have a beautiful day everyone.

Wow, thanks, Ruthie, I never would have thought of that! I mess up enough all by myself, without getting any help from faulty bobbins, hee hee hee. Good thing to know, thanks for mentioning it. Marji

There are so many stupid little things that can mess up our sewing! Why do we do this again? Oh, yeah. Because it is fun, and we get to meet so many new friends!!

Thanks good thing to check. Also, I have had some that were too full and made it too tight to pull through. So I had to unwind some of it.
