    I got this machine for Christmas? Does it come with bobbins and needles?

  • @hummingbirdlady11
    @hummingbirdlady114 жыл бұрын

    The bobbin thread doesn't need to be pulled up when the quick set bobbin thread cutter is used. In fact the bobbin thread will be quite short and difficult to pull up so people often think the sewing machine is defective because the bobbin thread is so short when they try to pull it up. When a long bobbin tail is actually wanted for instance when needed to pull for gathers, then don't use the bobbin thread cutter so the bobbin thread will stay long. The quick set bobbin thread cutter is a nice feature on such an inexpensive sewing machine. Shout out to those reading this: don't use metal bobbins because they will wear out the bobbin case and also cause poor stitching. This machine was designed to sew with plastic bobbins. Walmart sells brother bobbins appropriate for this machine in-store for a moderate price.

    Mine has decided that it can’t sew in tee shirt material. I was told to get a ball point needle. It still skips. It is like the top part doesn’t want to pull through it. My brother is ASD and high functioning. He needs a soft material on his to fix the nutrients for the patients in the hospital he works. He has sensory issues. The ball point works for like three stitch lines and then two will be crazy skipping stitches. Do you have an answer?

    @@dove1965 Your comment was a month ago, so what happened with sewing the tee shirt material? What Wanda said is a good idea. In addition to having a stabilizer (the computer paper ), try spray starching the area to be sewn, iron press it dry (press up and down to not stretch out the material), then the stiffened fabric will be easier to sew and will wash out before your brother wears it. When having stitching problems always re-thread the upper thread and the bobbin thread. Check if upper thread is catching on the spool pin or the spool itself AND always thread the upper thread tension disks while the presser foot is UP.

    If you are referring to loading a bobbin with thread: each bobbin flange has one tiny hole. It doesn't matter which one you use. Be sure to put the thread through the hole from inside the flange going up and out through the top of the flange. Leave a 6 inch thread tail to hold onto when first winding the bobbin, wind slowly, when there's a full layer of thread on the bobbin stem, stop winding for a minute to snip off the thread tail flush to the bobbin flange. Then continue winding slowly as much thread as you need, except don't over fill the bobbin. Thread should NOT be filled to the very edge of the flanges and especially should not bulge out past the flanges.

    No, it does not have to be Brother brand. In fact, Brother branded needles are made by Organ. If you had a Brother needle and looked at the shank with a magnifier, you'd see Organ is imprinted there (along with the needle size). You can buy a bulk of 100 Organ regular type needles (Sharps and Ball Points) from this online company for only $14 and Free shipping. They won't be in plastic cases. Instead each pack of 10 needles are wrapped in foil paper like chewing gum wrappers then that is in a paper package. The needles are excellent quality. www.ctsusa.com/_e/Household_Machine_Needles/product/ORGAN-15x1/15x1_HAx1_Organ_Needles_Sharp_Point_100pcs.htm Another fine place to buy Organ needles is: wawak.com which has many other sewing supplies at great prices and a flat rate shipping fee under $6. The Organ Quilting needles as Wawak calls them are actually Organ Heavy Material needles which are extra strong and have color coded shanks according to their size. www.wawak.com/Sewing/Needles/Home-Machine/organ-quilting-home-machine-needles-hlx5-10pack/?sku=MNR514 When buying needles online be certain you are ordering Home/Household needles with flat back shanks and appropriate for your project/thread/fabric and sewing machine.

    If you haven't found bobbins yet or need more, if you have a local Walmart then it will have genuine Brother bobbins that are appropriate for most all Brother sewing machines (and of course especially this machine). They are high quality bobbins yet very economical at under $4 for eight bobbins (which is half the price for the same bobbins at brother.com) You can always tell which bobbins are genuine brother bobbins because there is a very tiny b on one of the flanges (sides), may need a magnifier to see it. www.walmart.com/ip/Brother-SABOBBIN-8-Piece-Bobbin-Pack-for-Most-Brother-Sewing-Machines-Clear/19231652

    Oh wow that is a gorgeous sewing machine! Sadly, I lost both my Singer Quantum Stylist and my Brother Project Runway when a tree fell on our house last year. I preferred my Brother to the more expensive Singer. I've been looking for a cheaper machine now that I'm on disability. I'm very interested in this one! I'll have to save up for it. Thanks for your review!

    You shouldn't be using cross-wound thread on that vertical bobbin holder. It is designed to come off the top of the spools as you see on sergers. The thread can twist up to 20 times before it reaches the bobbin and this can cause some issues. See this video for more information: kzread.info/dash/bejne/e2We05uKn7Ofmso.html

    4 жыл бұрын

    @@agroves1995 There are a few common reasons with any sewing machine why the fabric gets stuck and why the needle unthreads. Is it unthreading at the needle? Look at the thread to see if it's frayed. If so, the thread may be too thick for the size of the needle's eye or the eye could have a tiny burr that is cutting the thread. If the thread is not frayed and only has slipped out of the needle then at the end of stitching, the needle and uptake lever need to be at their highest before removing the fabric. You will know they are at their highest when the grove on the side of the handwheel is aligned with the side seam of the sewing machine. Do that before removing the fabric and make sure the needle's thread tail is pulled out about 4 inches long before it's cut. If you use the thread cutter on the front of the face plate then the thread will be the right length. Then when beginning to sew, hold the thread tail down. Concerning the fabric getting stuck, is the fabric fluffy , fuzzy, stretchy or slippery. If so then something between the feed dogs and the fabric is needed such as tear away stabilizer or even tissue gift wrapping paper. If there's threads stuck, especially if you can see three threads then that is also caused by the thread uptake lever/or the needle not being at their highest before attempting to remove the fabric. Gently rock the handwheel very very slightly back and forth to get the threads to release. Otherwise, always always turn the handwheel toward you and not away from you as that will cause thread to get caught which pulls the fabric down to get stuck as well. Were you given a gift receipt for the sewing machine? How long has it been since it was purchased? Got the its box?
