Video Transcript

" Hello! I’m Stephany from Stephany’s Simply Sewing on behalf of expertvillage.com. I’d like to show you how wind a bobbin. I’d also like you to notice that this sewing machine is the one I learned on, it belonged to my grandmother. You really don’t have to have a very expensive sewing machine to do sewing. The first thing I’m going to do is take my spool of thread and place it on the spool spindle. Then I’m going to take my thread and put it through the tension knob. You will find out that many of the common elements of all these bobbin machines are similar. Take my bobbin, place it on the spindle for where I need to wind the bobbin, pull the thread through the hole in the bobbin, loosen my flywheel, that will prevent my needle from going up and down when I’m winding my bobbin, and then I’m going to push my bobbin winder against the belt. Holding on to my thread, there we go, and winding the bobbin. You may want to consult your owner’s manual for how to wind the bobbin that you have for your machine. As I said, most of the elements are very common, spindle, tension, bobbin, and some way to engage your bobbin winder. That is how you wind a bobbin. "
