How Do I Thread A Sewing Machine

So, today, I will show you how to thread a sewing machine. You need a very good thread for the sewing machine, that's the one bit of tension on it, and we put this on here on the thread holder and with your left hand, you guide the thread and with the right hand, you hold the tension but never try a free hand to thread your machine. This is much more complicated as you do it as I will show you now, so your right hand holds the tension and your left hand is guiding the thread through.

So, most machines have already some arrows or numbers which guide you through the system of the machine and my machine has the arrows and I follow them. I have to come here and I go through the tension and here is the tension plate and I am going around here and I bring up the needle, pull into this piston which will under-ride in case it is gone. This goes every time you paddle with the needle.

I hook here and then I have here on the needle the last hook, cut out an end of the thread so that you have a nice fresh cut. Release the press of hood and straighten the machine. Now, we have threaded the machine, the next stage is we insert the bobbin into the bobbin case.

That's the bobbin and that's the bobbin case. This machine has a vertical bobbin case here, we have also machines with the top in one, but this machine is threaded in this way, you have to have this thread coming from up to down, then you hold it and here is a little opening. You insert the bobbin, glide the thread into it and put the thread under the tension then I turn this bobbin case, insert into the bobbin case holder, and you need to hear a clicking sound.

If you don't hear this, don't sew. Step three, you need to bring the bobbin thread up on the surface so you hold with your left hand the needle thread, take your right hand to the swing wheel, put the needle all the way down and up again and if you look carefully, you can already see here a loop coming, taking the lower thread when the needle is on the highest position, you pull only with your left hand the thread up and look at that, here is the loop, you hold it like that, bring it under the press of it at the back, close the little door or the department. And this is how to thread your sewing machine. .
