I have a mid arm machine and most often use 10 or more bobbins. Just curious because there is a lot of stitching.
I also learned that all that thread also increases the weight of the quilt. We learn a lot when we go to mid and long arm machines. Lots of thread...and lots of time.
But it beats the other methods.

HI June,
I actually don't have an idea...my son did the quilt..I would guess two.....we use the pre-wound super bob bobbins they are class "M" ( I believe) the extra wide ones...that most long arms use.
I hope that helps. I rarely have to use 10 bobbins...unless it's a huge quilt with pebbling, and really tight quilting where you lay lots of thread down.....
Blessings
