Bobbin Work Made Easier

Use stamps as part of your design element to create your own freeform art on fabric. Then stitch it out (upside down) using a heavy weight specialty thread in your bobbin for sophisticated visual texture.

You will probably have to really loosen the tension rods to get elastic thread to pull through. Obviously, with it being so stretchy it is going to be challenging. I haven't worked with elastic in the bobbin in so long I don't know if I could even do it now!! I'd have to practice so that's all I can recommend right now. I'll see if I can pick some up and give it a try. If it works, I'll put it on youtube...

Something else I bought that I dont use. But I will be. I tried to do this with tissue wrapping paper. I do have other iron on stabilizer, I dont know why I thought use them for embroidery. this is what I will be doing with them. I have water and heat soluble. I will try on a sample first. You are an angel, you know just what demos are scarey and if you see them you understand. I really appreciate you.

Hi, Could you please show how to pull a elastic thread out of a bobbin case. I am finding it very hard to do this.

Try turning your audio off while you have it playing, and surf the web elsewhere. When it's done loading once completely into memory, go back and play it with the audio on and then the video will play without stops and hops.
