    Thank you so much for this, Jeanette! I just stitched a design where most of the design was fine except the final component had the bobbin thread showing on top quite a bit even though the earlier parts didn't. Now I know how to test and play around with this tension business. My workaround to fix my design was to go over the final component by hand with needle and thread. Luckily it was just several circles. It worked!

My older Brother Machines were the SE series 425, 600 and 625 and I finally spent the $$ for an SE2000 and was thinking maybe I should return it as I was really having issues with the bobbin thread coming through the bottom.

I imagined there must be a way to do that but not in the life of me would I have figured it out. I'm very new to embroidery and watching your videos has helped me immensely. From stabilizers, threads, hooping, adjustments, placements....... Thank you so much. Grateful.

I had no idea you had to remove the bobbin holder.

    Thanks SOOOOOO much Jeanette!! I've been sewing with Brother SE Machines for 10+ years now and never knew I could adjust the top tension like this and also the bobbin tension. I knew about the screw on the bobbin case but was always too scared to mess with this. Just got a SE 2000 last week and have been playing with embroidering names for memory bear paws and some of the bobbin thread was showing only in little bits. So annoying! Thought I was the only one trying to cover the white with marker LOL! Thank goodness I was using test fabric. Can't wait to try this out!! You are a life saver!!

    Jeanette - Thank you so much! I just recently purchased the SE1950 and tried embroidering my fist design. I knew it was going to more of a test but was disappointed when most of the design had bobbin thread showing through. I tried adjusting the upper thread tension but it didn't seem to have much affect. Tonight I will try and adjust the bobbin tension and see if I get better results using your idea of a test pattern 'I'. I have to say that I have watched a lot of KZread videos on the Brother SE1900. Yours are the most informative. Thank you for taking the time to make them. One question I have that is a bit off-topic but is related to thread. I purchased SimThread and it seems to be wound in the opposite direction. In order to get the thread to come off the bottom of the spool (Like the picture on the machine) I have to put it in backwards (Smaller end of spool to the right). Have you ever encountered this? Or does it really matter?

    Hi Deacon. I'm so glad you are enjoying the videos! And enjoy your SE1950!!! Once you get the tension all straighten out, you will love the machine. You are right about the simthread. Mine is wound the opposite direction too, but don't worry about it. It still works fine. I have the top of the thread facing left. It still embroiders and sews great!

    Deacon, I just thought about something. Your machine comes with two bobbin cases. Try switching the bobbin case and see if that makes a difference in the embroidery. Just do the letter "l" so you are not wasting too much thread.

    There is an embroidery tension feature onthe 1900 also, and when I set it to 2, like on the 600 I noticed my embroidery stitches looks much better. The default is 0 and I had to set mine. I will see if I have to set it everytime I use the embriodery feature. It's in the Hoop display feature on the third screen.

If you can afford the 10 needles I would purchase that one. It was a $5K difference in the price. The only reason why I didn't do the 10 needles was that I wasn't sure if I would be able to recoup the price with embroidery sales. I was wrong....It's definitely a good investment!
