Sewing pattern: Adjust bobbin tension for front loading bobbins

May 4, 2019 by Anne Weaver

Sewing tutorial: Adjust bobbin tension for front loading bobbinsUsually when people talk about adjusting tension on your sewing machine, they’re referring to the upper thread tension.  That’s easy to adjust by just turning a knob.  But did you know if you have a front loading bobbin, you can also adjust the tension in your bobbin?  It’s not something I do all that often, but it’s good to know how to fine tune that tension as well.  Petro from Easy Peasy Creative has a tutorial showing how to do it.  Her tutorial works on front loading bobbins.  If you have a drop in bobbin, you probably won’t need to adjust the tension and I wouldn’t recommend doing it without first consulting your sewing machine manual.

This is an easy sewing project that is perfect for summer! I even made a few for my kids so they each have their own. Start sewing this fun bag today.
