Because I can't do that with this Brother, the end gets tangled underneath. Sometimes I can untangle it, but often not. This makes my SITD look messy on the back. kwim?

I have a Janome with the front drop in bobbin. It won't bring the bobbin thread up with the presser foot up. I put the presser foot down, needle down, needle up, lift the presser foot and pop the bobbin thread to the top.

You can still pull the thread up, just turn your handwheel

I was taught to hold the top thread and make your first stitch. Pull it to get your bobbin thread on top of your fabric. Now you can pull both threads together either to the side or back. This should keep them from tangling. Hope this helps
