    WONDERFUL INSTRUCTOR! I was always taught "NEVER USE THICK THREAD IN BOBBIN!". You have made a new chapter for me to take the challenge to the table of my sewing friends. Thanks! Bruce

    I thought about using thick thread in the top but it would not go through the biggest needle I had. This is great & I am going to go load a bobbin right now & see how it works for me. I am making bowls from rope & hope this works. Will be able to make something beautiful

    Thanks Jasmin. The sky and grass is painted. I have watered down some fabric paint but you can use other paints, acrylic is good. I have also attached some little bits of merino wool and couched that down with some embroidery in the grass area and then I have embroidered some daisies on top of that

    Hi, the open toed free machine embroidery foot I use in this video is for a Brother machine available from Frank Nutt Sewing Machines. Different brands of machines have their own styles of free machine embroidery feet and they all look slightly different. What you need is an open toed machine embroidery foot that is designed for your specific machine model. Hope that helps.

    Why not trying to reverse the thick threads on the top and using the normal fly of threads on bobbin you can save time to reload the bobbin I use this technique since 30 years of sewing experience but love what are doing

    The thick thread I use is too thick to pass through the top sewing machine mechanism.
