And not all plastic bobbins work in a Janome ... you need a Janome one.
Absolutely! I wonder if some of the ppl who complain about 'unfixable' tension issues when FMQing on a Janome are using cheap bobbins? Why would you spend a small fortune on a machine then skimp a few pounds (or dollars!) buying cheap bobbins? Makes no sense to me! :?
