Grann of 6; what kind of machine do you use? I would love to hear a peep before I run out of bobbin thread.

I feel like I won the lottery! :lol: |
I don't know how many times that has happened to me. Usually I have sewn for about half an hour before I find out I don't have any thread. Maybe a little exaggerated, but it doesn't feel like it. Then I usually have to stop because I feel defeated.

My machiine has this wonderful warning beep, however it tells me I am low on bobbin thread when there is still half a bobbin left and does it tell me when I actually run out? Nooooo!

I'm happy for you :)

How funny! Happened to me today too...maybe I should have played the lottery today :mrgreen:
|
It's only happened to me once!
|
I've learned from that lesson and try to be more conscience of checking my bobbin thread fullness regularly so it doesn't happen as often as it used to. :D

When this is going to happen, i slow my stitching to a slower speed - yegh - as if that would help - but who knows might go a little further :)
