👋 Raise your hand if you hate thread nests! I know I do.

Do you know why your thread sometimes nests when you start sewing? A lot of people don’t know what causes this. There are a bunch of reasons, and here are 6 of the most common ones!

🪺 You overwound your bobbin

🪺 You’re using the wrong bobbin (buy one for your particular machine)

🪺 Your bobbin thread tail got sucked underneath (be sure to hold onto it!)

🪺 Your bobbin thread tail STILL gets sucked underneath (use a “thread bunny” to jump from a scrap of fabric to your main fabric)

🪺 You missed the take-up lever when threading your machine

🪺 You forgot to put you presser foot down when you started sewing
