Yesterday while starting to work on my secret project, the first step was winding the bobbin. Everything went well until I heard a crack. Then I heard another one. At that point I stopped winding, and took the bobbin off the spindle.
What's wrong with this picture?!
What? You can't see it? Hint: look at the one in focus!
So when this happens never fear! I was stunned for a second because I hate to waste good thread. Not even when I got the whole spool for under $2. No. So I got the idea of putting the damaged spool on the vertical spindle on my machine, and wind it as it was regular thread. I'd set my machine to a lower speed (because it's great, and has that nice feature) and wound the bobbin like I normally would.
The result? A totally functional bobbin. There, you have it! :)
'Til we blog again! :)
Nice! Love it when a disaster is averted in the sewing room.
