TIA

HI I didn't start sewing or quilting until the last 12 years and I am now 69. You are a baby. By the way, I almost left because the bobbin ran out and I had no idea how to fill it or put it back correctly also so you are in good company. LOL

Pretty bad a 47 yr old just learning to sew. HOW SAD!!

generally speaking, there are usually 2 ways to insert the bobbin, and once you find out if your machine is a P or a Q, it's always easy. Just consider the thread tail as the leg of the p or the q.... one of my sewing buddies taught me this, and I have some P machines, and some Q machines..
sure made my life easier.
