How do you do this???

I am going crazy trying to thread this sewing machine!!!! I have looked online at directions and they dont have directions for specific types of machines...unless you want to buy them. I think I have it right...but I cant get the bobbin to catch. I took home-ec...why is this so hard??? Does anyone know how to do thread a stupid sewing machine??? I have done everything that 5 different websites have said to do. This is making me cranky. :(

  1. I just reread this and probably think you already tried this site. My advice, although I am terrible with bobbins, is to hold the thread loose and slowly move the needle down manually. I do it really slowly and tt usually takes me a million tries and a lot of frustration, but keep at it. :)

  2. Thanks! I didnt see that website yet. It was more detailed than some of the other ones I found. Maybe I am just not menat to use a sewing machine. I can never thread the things. I will print these out and follow them step by step and cross my fingers!!! Thanks!

  3. I usually have to have Ben help me. I'm bad with machines.

  4. That is way too funny- I am the same way. Jake is good with machines...I am not! I am not mechanically inclined :) Thankfully he is...even with sewing machines. He can figure out the way it ws engineered and how the things were supposed to work. I just try to force things where they dont belong and usually want to go at the thing with a bat after a while!!!! Hahahahaha I feel pretty dumb that my husband can thread a sewing machine better than me. Maybe I will have him do it...even though I wanted to do it myself just out of pride :)
