[@carvndra]

FINALLY SOMEONE WHO SHOWED HOW TO PLACE THE BOBBIN IN THE MACHINE AND HOW TO CATCH IT WITH THREAD

[@IBeLady]

Yes!!! 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼😂

[@kola9294]

IRK I HAVE THE BROTHER ST371HD BUT THE DIRECTIONS DONT EXPLAIN SHIT

[@nicholelarue2499]

If I could like a comment more than once, this would be it!

[@cindykun3607]

I swear some videos I’ve had to watch them loop it 30 times over and I still didn’t get it. Thank goodness for this video

[@Ravenlike27]

Facts!!

[@iNeer1]

After looking at many out-of focus videos about bobbins, this video was exactly what I was looking for. Thanks

[@happypandadancecrewbitcoin4381]

Thank you. I was turning away from instead of turning towards me. Also the tension holding the fishing pole was key. You are the best. Thanks a million.

[@dgathome4345]

I too, was turning away and not towards me. Your comment helped me as I didn’t watch the whole video!!

[@jennyhansen6392]

I have tried for five years to use my sewing machine with no luck because of that rotten bobbin. Today changed everything. I am in tears. Thank you

[@EatCandy]

Thank you so much for this tutorial! The instructions that came with my machine were so confusing and this helped me understand it. Don't worry about the haters saying your metaphors are childish. I find that helps me remember AND sewing is for all ages! Keep it up, and again thank you. I will definitely be checking out your other videos as I am beginner, this was a frustration saver. 😊

[@melissasmith4685]

Mine is confusing as well,because I just went out and bought a sewing machine I told myself I am going to teach myself how to sew. But couldn't get the bobbin to come up. And her video help me with that

[@tinafazzari2948]

EatCandy Thank you. I can’t please everyone. My students understand the concept so I guess that’s all that matters.

[@mattsparrow1070]

Thank you Tina!!! I was so confused by the other videos, never used a sewing machine in my life, but so excited to start

[@SuperLittleTyke]

"childish" is good. A good mnemonic is KISS, which stands for Keep It Simple Stupid. For me, it can't be simple enough, because I just find sewing machines very complicated. This video is excellent.

[@cindyhackett1158]

Ignore the negative and insulting comments, thanks for the instructions. After having not used my machine in years, I really needed this detailed step-by-step.

[@saintsbabe66]

Tina! You just saved me another handful of hair loss! After returning my first choice machine (that I'd picked out for my Christmas present that my family could all chip in on) because I didn't realize just because I can thread a needle in my hand does not mean that I can thread the machine. Turns out that my vision is much worse with age! I had no idea that auto Needle threaders even existed and can be fitted to many machines. $51 return shipping lesson learned. So I spent a little more money and bought a little nicer Janome model. I've struggled with the needle threader but after several videos I've finally got it. They make it look so easy in the store! Then to have trouble catching the bobbin for several days, this sewing newbie just about threw the entire machine across the room-- and then I did a search on a different model and found YOU!!! You've given me renewed hope that this time I might actually sew something-- anything -even a rag on a stick would be preferable to purchasing a wig! I simply cannot say THANK YOU ENOUGH!!!

[@annareitler9395]

I know this video came out a few years ago but oh my goodness I’m so glad I found you. I was so lost.

[@danielab7997]

The same is me. I have been an experienced seamstress for many years and bought a new machine 3 years ago and couldn't understand from the video that they put me in the machine's tutorials and not from any other video. You explain and take pictures so close and slowly that you can understand everything and also see clearly where the wire should go. I have no words to thank you! You saved me.

[@lmhalsema]

Me too! My mom kept "teaching" me which really meant quickly doing it herself in front of me so I had no idea what she did and then getting annoyed I didn't get it. Thank you!!! This was so well done and clear. Sadly, my up down button doesn't work, but you showed manually too so I'm set!

[@bmarmartin1222]

Omg as a guy i just have an idea and knew i had to sew. I hope im a quick study.

[@stevelamore4178]

Hello, how are you doing my friend?

[@brandihardman8886]

You are awesome! I was super frustrated and wanted to punt my machine like a football but you saved the day! Thank you so much! Crisis averted!

[@f.b.i5836]

Brandi Hurst you know this is my teacher😐

[@toniamhamrick1977]

Lol same here!

[@gloriaglasey8485]

Ik this video is 5 years old but by far the best one, thank u 🙏🏼

[@1015SaturdayNight]

I'm a 50 year old learning to use a machine and your video is one of the most helpful on KZbin and your description made me smile! ♥️

[@SpiritualFreemasonry]

That's a really nice video. Well explained and not rushing anything. As a guy I can normally understand machines quite well, but sewing machines have their own logic! Thank you!

[@SpiritualFreemasonry]

BTW I re-threaded the needle ten times trying to catch the bobbin. That tip on "holding the fishing rod" saved me from throwing the machine against the wall! Thanks!

[@lolalemon8016]

Thank you so much. I was close to tears getting frustrated ...no one tells you to turn the wheel towards you! Thank so much, you're an amazing teacher.

[@AmandaMarrisett]

Thank you for speaking so clearly and for the up close video! I haven't been able to do this for myself til this video. No longer frustrated!!

[@stevelamore4178]

Hello, how are you doing my friend?

[@kariservais5010]

I've been teaching sewing for 30 years and have used the fishing pole/fish analogy as long as I can remember! Fun to see someone else who uses it too! It is a great way for students to remember!!!

[@LorneMoosomin]

What if I have a older model singer

[@paulistanaemoregon6617]

You are a God send woman! I just got a sewing machine and I spent so much time trying to thread the machine that I was giving up! Thank you so much for the clear explanation and idea to use two colors so I can see what is happening in the machine. I am learning how to sew and I appreciate your help!

[@lydiaaragon6066]

Thank you so much your videos are Awesome . My daughter has Aspergers she finds your videos very helpful in her understanding. Given her so much confidence with her new machine X

[@treycijones3262]

Listen. You’re my hero. I’ve never had a sewing machine of my own, but I got one at a yard sale and I was super excited…til I realized I had no idea what I was doing. 😂 thank you for helping me ❤

[@thickgall1]

your Video deserves so many more reviews. I’ve been sewing for all of 24 hours lol and I had no clue how to loop my 1977 brother machine. You saved me a ton of frustration and headaches

[@bayleightan]

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS!!! The quality of the video was amazing, your instructions were crystal clear, and I really appreciate how you took the time to explain everything AND had the foresight to put separate colored thread in the machine!! THANK YOU!!!

[@kinkiesweet]

Thank you! Thank you! THANK YOU! Your video is the only video I've found to clearly demonstrate how to catch the bobbin thread. Much appreciated!

[@karazdzinnicki]

Thank you. My husband got me a snazzy sewing machine and I dont know the first thing about doing this!!! Got it now

[@stevelamore4178]

Hello Kara

[@reagan9048]

5:54 THANK YOU SOOO MUCH! I used to struggle soo much, not knowing there was a way to do it ten times easier. You’re a lifesaver. 😀

[@jaymullins7107]

This video is old now, but THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!! My mother is out of the country and i’ve been trying to figure out how to use her sewing machine to mend some clothes. How to thread the bobbin into the machine was the part that escaped me. You’re a life saver!

[@talltales9790]

Fantastic. The best threading video I've seen - and I've watched plenty these past 3 days.

[@marymcnally4852]

Tina, I for one really appreciate your clarity. Thank you so much for sharing this with us.

[@stevelamore4178]

Hello Mary

[@adriannnaable]

Thank you so much for not just glossing over this part

[@catherinerogers3395]

Thank you so much! I've watched several videos on threading my machine and this video helped me the most! My problem was not with threading the machine but putting in the bobbin correctly. Now my new machine works perfectly! Again, thank you! 💖💖💖🙏🙏🙏👍👍👍

[@VacationVibesTravel]

Hi Tina, Thank you SO much for sharing this video! I'm completely new to sewing and trying to teach myself (with the help of youtube videos) and this video is the ONLY reason I'm able to get started right now. I was stuck! LOL So thank you again, April

[@tinafazzari2948]

Hi April, I teach family and consumer science and I actually put these on for my students but I'm glad it's been helpful to you as well. Thank you.

[@stevelamore4178]

Hello, how are you doing my friend?

[@anneluggalexander7873]

DO YOU KNOW how many people irl couldn’t teach me this?? Thank you for this video! The fish and the fishing pole thing will ascertain I won’t forget.

[@mybestyears13]

As a beginner, I found your word choices to be very helpful. They helped me connect and better understanding the technical terms. Great job Tina. Thak you for your video

[@anneandretta9594]

You are a natural teacher. Thank you for this

[@juliaalexander860]

Tina I love you so much thank you for teaching me all of the things my mother couldnt 🙏 bless you

[@SuperLittleTyke]

This a very useful video. I have a Brother machine, but the bobbin and cage look a very similar design. I have never understood how "catching the bobbin thread" actually works, but with your step-by-step instructions it all becomes amazingly clear. I bought my Brother machine new several years ago just for shortening men's trousers, as I was sick of Wonderweb. I don't buy new trousers very often, so each time I have to "reinvent the wheel" to understand how to use the sewing machine. It usually takes me longer to get the bobbin and needle threaded than to sew the actual hem! But after watching your video, I'm going to get out the sewing machine and practise on some scrap material.

[@michaelflorentine4284]

OMG! Your video saved my sewing life. I always need to understand how something works and I was clueless on catching the bobbin until I saw your wonderful video. When you said to think of your needle thread as a fishing pole, I almost cried - seriously. I realized that I finally found someone who could make me understand this previously mysterious concept. You are awesome and your video was magic for me. Keep up the good work.

[@dizzymaiden]

Thank you so much! I have been struggling for so long time- you are a wonderful teacher!

[@donjr1705]

dizzymaiden I agree she is my teacher

[@LAM-eh6oe]

Thank you so much for demonstrating it so clearly - I’m new to sewing and have been trying to catch the loop from under the presser foot which made it so difficult!

[@krystalynfonseca1849]

I know I'm going to sound crazy but this video saved me! I have never used a sewing machine but I wanted to make some facial masks for a few friends who are in need and after about a hr of frustration, you literally saved me from quitting! Thank you so much!!!

[@hmcorcoran0]

I couldnt agree more !!

[@bridkelly9]

I'm the exact same, I've been struggling so much and could not follow any other video. You made it so simplified thank you

[@Dala-sn5to]

You just said everything I wanted to say 😃

[@pushpachohan11]

Bríd Kelly Thank you nice and clear.

[@teddiashby4949]

Absolutely excellent....solved my question for my Heavy Duty Singer bobbin fiasco! thank you!

[@VoiceMyDreams]

Thank you so much for the help! Your voice is very nice to listen to and you never gloss over the simple details, which really helped.

[@hopefilledfarm6736]

This was extremely helpful!! The fishing pole/fish analogy probably helped this country girl a ton too 😂 Thank you so much for making this!

[@Grellibe]

Oh my gosh! This is perfect. Thank you! You make things so clear and easy to understand. This is just what I need.

[@garden_of_soul]

Such an explanatory video, step by step. I had an issue with the bobbin Now everything is clear and simple.Thank you😊

[@sarahlowther4401]

Thank you so much for this video! I was gifted a machine with no manual and this video absolutely saved the project I’m working on. I have been taught to thread a bobbin time and again and this time it finally made sense because of the close up “catching the fish” part!

[@stevelamore4178]

Hi Sarah

[@amywilloughby7729]

FINALLY a clear, instructive video on how to raise a bobbin thread!! Literally you should get an Emmy award for this 😂 Machine manual and other videos were useless.

[@lindamitchell6435]

Thank you for sharing this. I have been struggling to get the bobbin into my sewing machine and you made it so easy with this tutorial. I finally know what I'm doing now! Happy days!

[@stevelamore4178]

Hello Linda

[@gianacapialbi2231]

Thank you so much, I watched several videos on how to catch the bobbin and was very frustrated until I watched this one and I got it. Yes!!! Thanks so much Tina!

[@stevelamore4178]

Hello

[@getsmartpaul]

Hi Tina, Thank You for explaining this to me like I'm a 3 year old ! ha ha. As a newbie, I didn't understand how the top thread and bobbin thread are loaded correctly. I wasn't doing this and my stitches were horrible in the beginning of the sewing. Subscribed ! Hope all is well almost 10 years later !

[@Moerocha62]

Thank you! Your video was so helpful. I moved across the country, and my machine got jostled in the move - plus I had limited sewing experience to begin with! After digging it out of the boxes I just couldn’t figure out why the bobbin thread wasn’t catching. Thanks to your video it was easily solved! Many blessings and Happy Holidays! 🙏🏻👼🏻🎄🕎🪡🧵💗

[@nigel-matthews]

This video was really helpful - you're a great teacher! I couldn't figure out why my stitches keep getting knotted up on the bottom - now I know I have to catch the bobbin thread.

[@debbiecremeans1230]

This is the absolute best video I've seen on this procedure. Thank you!!!!

[@stevelamore4178]

Hello, how are you doing my friend?

[@mrs.jacksonholecoin8140]

Awesome tutorial! Explained slowly and thoroughly with a great example for us to learn from. Thank you so much!

[@mylegacymovie]

Definitely an ‘emergency’ help. I was literally stuck for hours trying to catch the bobbin thread until I saw this video. Thank you!

[@yourmomsgf8265]

THANK YOU for making this video! It was a god send. I haven’t been able to understand my grandma’s old sewing machine, and the instructors are ancient. But this video was a lifesaver!

[@truthseeker9416]

Excellent tutorial. The manual that comes with the sewing machines are obviously written by men who don't sew at all but know the machine well. Wish manuals were written by people like you

[@ShadaneEasington]

such a great break down and lesson! thank you

[@mjuniversal23]

Thank you for creating this video! Your instructions and picture quality are both so clear and easy for follow. Thank you!

[@SamanthaKardos]

Thank you! Demonstrating this with the two colors of thread helped so much!

[@alfordkessinger6894]

By FAR the BEST video to show how the bobbin works. Thanks from a beginner.

[@christieomasta9591]

This was fabulous, love the visual with the information to help me remember how to do this.

[@ymca2818]

You are excellent! Finally I will be able to practice everything you did in your video. Thanks again.

[@toniamhamrick1977]

Thank you so much!! I am so intimidated by a sewing machine. I bought a brand new machine and have no idea how to use it. You made this so simple and easy to see for a newbie lol. Thank you so so much!

[@h2ostain47]

TY for showing different ways to do this and going slow enough to see...I'm a complete beginner and am trying to learn. I was given an older singer model and I'm trying to learn how to use it. Very helpful...

[@AnnaAAllen]

This just saved me from a complete meltdown!!!! Thank you SO much for the super-clear instructions and demo!

[@Gregory-zu4uv]

Big thanks Tina for such a smart and detailed info.

[@kiwiflowers9475]

I really want to thank you so much, I could cry!!! I was getting so frustrated and this saved my life!!!! God bless you!!! ♥️♥️

[@kayleejackson2996]

THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! My grandmother passed away so I adopted her old singer sewing machine and I have only sewn a few times but never threaded a machine. I figured out the threading for the regular thread but couldn't figure out what I was doing wrong with the bobbin. After 2 hours of searching I found your video and got it first try! Thank you so much❤️

[@user-lb8sv1nc1d]

Thank you so much! I was struggling for days trying to catch the bobbing thread! You explain it so clearly!! you saved me! Thank you again!!

[@Sharktwoth]

Thank you so much! I found a semi NH machine in my linen closet the other day and was up for hours last night trying to get it to work before I found out that you had to thread the bobbin! All the other videos had different machines, but this is super similar to mine (mine doesn't have the up down needle button) super excited to start sewing!

[@thebestoftiktok9014]

Thank you so much for this video!! I'm trying to make masks and I forgot how to use my sewing machine it had been so long! This is the most clear and thorough tutorial I've seen. Thank you 🙏💛

[@SimplyAnnieB]

I was recently gifted with a Janome and was have problems with the bobbin. Thanks to your video the problem has been solved. Thanks again; great video.

[@wread42]

Thank you. I was not using the P; I was using the 9. I was not holding the fishing pole. I was turning the hand wheel the wrong way. Seeing that thread come around the bobbin made sense to me. Re slow / 5 year old: people watching this video should be aware they are in the company of 5 year olds, learning something very basic. I thought it was great and it helped me.

[@1969CampEvans]

THANK YOU ! YOUR INSTRUCTIONS ARE FAR BETTER THAN ANY OTHERS ON U TUBE.

[@lvaddict3549]

I am new beginner and this is the only clear instruction of how to understand how the Bobbin work. Thank youuu so muchhh

[@cassiebrown3126]

Thank you for making this video! I've been trying to figure out which way my bobbin thread goes and my mom and bfs mom have tried for years to get me to use a sewing machine .... I thought I was a lost cause! I had everything else figured out and have couldn't thread it myself:( I thought I was destined to hand sew forever!!! Thank you for letting your knowledge help this girl FINALLY (after 27 years of life and threading failure) use the machine that brings my creative side shine💕💕💕💜💜🌻

[@temitopeayanbisi8987]

Thank you. This was helpful. I was already changing my mind about inbuilt bobbin case.

[@hopesparks6804]

This is honestly the most helpful in explaining and showing video I have found, thank you!

[@arazick]

Thank you very much! This was very clear explanation of how the needle thread picks up the bobbin thread. I needed this information to fix my mother in law machine.

[@wildflower5607]

I must say this is the best one I've run across. Thanks!

[@roneezaxo]

Thank you so much for this wonderful video. I learned so much from it. You are a great teacher.

[@jenniferh6813]

Thank you so much for showing WHY the top thread catches the bobbin thread! I knew the basics of how to do it, and there are various videos showing this, but what I really wanted to know was HOW the mechanism moves to pick up the thread. If it all seems to happen as if by magic, it is so difficult to sort out the problems that arise. Which for me, they invariably do. 🙂Your video, with its two brightly coloured threads demonstrated very clearly exactly what I wanted to know! Now, at last, I understand how it all works. . Many, many thanks.

[@okweiannang2180]

you did awesome Tina, that was detailed and the best video for beginners like me

[@meganchambers8108]

My goodness this was sooooo helpful! Thank you! I used to get so frustrated with my machine because it just seemed like some sort of wizardry was happening in the machine but it's so helpful to see how it actually works!

[@LeTweets823]

First video I’ve seen that is very thorough and the video quality is great! This helped me so much!!!! THANK YOU!!!🙏🏼

[@LatinaLife]

Thank you!!! So clear and to the point 🥰 saved me a big headache

[@maleighapeterson3987]

Thank God I was scrolling through hundreds of videos but none were as helpful as this.

[@hattiebarber2555]

I have never sewn with a sewing machine before and i couldn’t reach out to my grandma due to covid-19. this video was extremely helpful! thank you for taking your time to do this! ❤️

[@charlenecolter9423]

Wonderful demonstration. This will be so easy to remember for next time!

[@Allison-fs6bq]

Lifesaver thank you💜 if I watched one more shaky bobbin video I was going to go insane 😭

[@Elysiumbell]

this is amazing an absoulte live saver, a gem thank you

[@luv503yo]

I’m a beginner and this helped me understand stand so much. I got my moms old singer inspiration sewing machine that she hasn’t used in awhile and I’m trying to figure it out.

[@paulaemm]

You are a sanity saver. This is the only tutorial that actually taught me how to catch my fish! Thank you!

[@TheHillya]

So glad my Dad shared this one with me. Super helpful!

[@vickyp.1886]

This is amazingly clear and sorely needed. Thanks a ton!!!

[@rebeccabee6615]

If you were sitting next to me and my machine right now, I’d hug you! Thank you for this very helpful video!

[@tinafazzari2948]

rebeccabee66 Thank you. I’m glad you learned from my video. Makes me happy.

[@stevelamore4178]

Hello, how are you doing my friend?

[@darshanapathak4373]

OMG You are the best!!! I was trying from last few hours and I was about to cry honestly. Anyways you made me cry but with happiness. 🙏🙏🙏 Thank you so much!!!

[@deborahjenkins432]

Thank you so much! Your video was so helpful. I’ve looked at many and was still having issues. I finally managed to get my bobbin threaded.

[@chiamakapeace508]

The very best video on this bobbin issue, the very best! Thank you so much for being very detailed.

[@katyconriquez4167]

Omg this is the only helpful video I've been able to find. Thank you so much!

[@florencemerrick1354]

I love you, this was all I needed for the past hour
