andriko Posted June 16, 2007 Report Share Posted June 16, 2007 What to use as a bobbin thread? Shall I use the same in the bobbin? Customer brought such a thin batting, that I am afraid not to get a good tension. thanks for any suggestions greetings from switzerland Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
birgitquilts Posted June 16, 2007 Report Share Posted June 16, 2007 Hi Andrea, With SoFine, I normally use the same in the bobbin. But I could imagine Bottom Line as well. Hope that helps. Birgit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dixieqwv Posted June 16, 2007 Report Share Posted June 16, 2007 I only use SoFine on top and BottomLine in the bobbin. Works great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BethDurand Posted June 16, 2007 Report Share Posted June 16, 2007 I think that SoFine in both top and bottom would be fine. Let us know how it worked for you. beth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stagecl Posted June 17, 2007 Report Share Posted June 17, 2007 So Fine is wonderful when used in the top and the bobbin. I often use Signature in the top then So Fine or Bottom Line in the bobbin. I don't have any problems with tension when given a thin batt. There are times when I want the quilting to show up more so I use a 40 wt thread (Signature).

BarbWetzel Posted June 18, 2007 Report Share Posted June 18, 2007 So fine.. and pre wound bottom line in the bobbin.. It works great.. all purchased from Superior... Barb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andriko Posted June 25, 2007 Author Report Share Posted June 25, 2007 I'll give So fine and bottom line a try. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andriko Posted July 30, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 30, 2007 I used So Fine in top and bottom. Only had to tight the top tension so much, that I thought it would break easily. But, it didn't. Result is fine, although the tops were worse then my patchwork. And I thought I am bad at that ... You all take care, will you?
