PREPARING FOR BOBBIN WORK
Required Materials
■ Bobbin case and bobbin cover
a
Bobbin case (gray)
There is a notch at the location marked by “A”.
b
Bobbin cover with tabs (for bobbin work)
There are ribs “B” on the back of the bobbin cover.
The ribs press down on the bobbin so it is not lifted out 
when thick thread is being fed from it.
■ Lower thread
We recommend the following types of threads for 
bobbin work.
* If ribbon is to be used, we recommend that tension not be 
applied. Refer to page 8 for more detailed instructions.
■ Upper thread
Sewing machine embroidery thread (polyester thread) 
or monofilament (transparent nylon) thread.
If you do not wish for the upper thread to be visible, we 
recommend using transparent nylon monofilament 
thread or polyester light weight thread (50wt. or above) 
that is the same color as the lower thread.
■ Needle
Use a needle appropriate for the upper thread and 
fabric being used. Refer to “Fabric/Thread/Needle 
Combinations” (in the chapter “CHANGING THE 
NEEDLE”) and “Embroidery Step by Step” in the 
machine’s Operation Manual.
■ Presser foot
Utility stitches or decorative stitches: Monogramming 
foot “N”
Free motion sewing: Free motion quilting foot “C”, Free 
motion open toe quilting foot “O” or Free motion echo 
quilting foot “E”
Embroidery: Embroidery foot “W”
■ Fabric
Be sure to sew trial stitches on a piece of scrap fabric, 
which includes the same threads and fabric as what is 
being used in your project.
<Sewing/Embroidery>
No.5 or finer hand embroidery 
thread or decorative thread
Flexible woven ribbon
(When embroidering: approx. 2mm 
(approx. 5/64 inch) recommended)
<Sewing only>
Fine embroidery ribbon (silk or 
silk-like material) (3.5 mm (approx. 
1/8 inch) or less, recommended)
Note
• Do not use thread heavier than No.5 hand 
embroidery thread.
• Some threads may not be appropriate for bobbin 
work. Be sure to sew trial stitches before sewing on 
your project.
Note
• The sewing results may be affected by the type of 
fabric used. Before sewing your project, be sure to 
sew trial stitches on a piece of scrap fabric that is 
the same as the fabric used in the project.
