Bobbinplay

Fabric: Firm woven fabric, 4” x 6” and

Lightweight tear away-stabilizer, 4” x 6”

Needle: 80/12 Universal

Thread: 30 wt. cotton embroidery for the needle and

Heavy decorative thread for the bobbin

Needle Position: center

Presser Foot: Open Embroidery Foot #20/20C/20D

Additional Accessory: Black Latch or auxiliary bobbin case

Place the stabilizer behind the fabric. Optional: Use temporary

spray adhesive to hold the stabilizer in place.

Wind a bobbin (on the machine at a slow speed) half full of heavy

decorative thread, such as YLI Designer 6 or Pearl Crown Rayon.

Insert the bobbin into the Black Latch Bobbin Case (or an extra

bobbin case); adjust (loosen, in most cases) the tension screw

as necessary. For 8 Series machines, remove the bobbin into the

machine and adjust the tension as directed in the manual using

the Multi-purpose Tool.

Thread the needle with regular sewing thread; select a Feather

stitch. Note: Select stitches that are more open, rather than

heavy so the decorative thread has room to form the stitch.

Place the stabilized fabric right side down under the presser

foot, with the stabilizer facing up. Use the handwheel to bring

the bobbin thread up to the surface. You may need to “tug” on

the needle thread to pull the heavy bobbin thread through the

fabric. Hold the thread tails behind the presser foot.

Sew a row of stitches; when finished, turn the fabric right side

up. The bobbin tension can be adjusted to alter the look of the

stitch as desired. Use a hand-sewing needle to bring the decorative

thread to the back of the work; knot the thread tails to secure the

stitching.

Repeat, using the Star stitch.

Bobbinplay Tips

• ONLY use an auxiliary bobbin case; do NOT adjust

the tension on your regular bobbin case.

• Use a contrasting color of bobbin thread; it will be slightly

visible on the right side of the fabric, making the

decorative stitches resemble hand-stitched embroidery.

• Increase the needle tension (along with the loosened

bobbin tension) if needed to make the stitch look as

desired.

Do you know how to:

▪ Adjust the bobbin tension?

▪ Select a stitch suitable for bobbinplay?
