Step 1
Make sure your thread is on the right kind of bobbin for a drop-in bobbin holder. The right kind will come with your machine, but you can also find them in most craft departments of stores. They will be designated as drop-in bobbins.
-
Step 2
Look under the sewing machine foot. The door to the bobbin holder will be there.
-
Step 3
Open the drop-in bobbin door and set it aside.
-
Step 4
Unwind about 6 inches of thread from your bobbin.
-
Step 5
Insert the bobbin into the bobbin holder, and pull the thread back and into the crevice on the outside of the bobbin mount.
-
Step 6
Place the bobbin door back on, making sure to keep the remaining thread under the cover.
-
Step 7
Make sure the rest of your sewing machine is threaded, and use your sewing machine balance wheel to catch the bobbin thread. Once caught, pull it behind the machine.
-
Step 1
Make sure you have the right bobbin before proceeding. They will look somewhat different from the drop-in bobbins but will still be marked as a front-load bobbin in the store.
-
Step 2
Open the door to your front-load bobbin holder. The door for this should be on the front of your sewing machine.
-
Step 3
Pull out the metal bobbin case from the machine.
-
Step 4
Unwind about 6 inches of thread from your bobbin.
-
Step 5
Push the bobbin into its bobbin case, pulling the thread through the tension flap on the top of the case. It is a small piece of metal on the top part of the bobbin case.
-
Step 6
Push the entire case with the bobbin back into place.
-
Step 7
Thread the rest of your machine and use the balance wheel to catch the bobbin thread. Pull both threads back behind the machine foot and begin sewing.
