The Handi Quilter bobbinwinder is a neat, portable unit that works with all the Handi Quilter Longarm machines and the Pfaff Powerquilter 16.0.
Wind your own bobbins consistently and evenly. Bobbin tension is the foundation of good tension on your quilting. By setting up your bobbinwinder correctly you should be able to wind everything from very fine (100wt) to thick (12wt) threads.
Set up the magic eye so that it cuts out when the bobbin is no more than 80% full. If you are doing edge to edge designs you may wish to wind less than a full bobbin so that you can change your bobbin every couple of passes and not be left with a lot of thread on your bobbin. Experience will guide you as to what amount you will need based on the density of design and the size of quilt.
If you would like some more information about the Bobbwinder including how to rewind a bobbin you can watch our Facebook Live on this link - it's about 34 minutes in • Friday Facebook Live 1...

I was having a terrible time with my bobbin winder last night. I watched a couple of videos and still no luck. I found your video this morning and put my thread through the tension discs as you recommended and problem solved! Thank you so much!

@PinholeQuilting 2 года назад

Thank you for the feedback Lynn! It's great to know that you have your bobbinwinder sorted. It's the key to getting good tension.

After many hours and some tears, this worked. I cannot thank you enough

@PinholeQuilting 3 года назад

That's great to hear. Glad it has worked for you.

This is a great video, Liz. You were very thorough. I even appreciate your waiting for the bobbin to wind completely. However, while you mentioned a mushy bobbin, you did not actually explain what to do if it IS mushy. I am watching this today because I have discovered that my bobbins have - apparently - been winding very mushy for some time!! I really cannot believe that I have not had tension issues! I'm assuming I need to tighten the little knob on front, and that is what I will try. Thank you!

Hi Jodi - Many thanks for the positive comments. If you expand the comments /description for the video you'll see I cover how to rewind a mushy bobbin on a Facebook Live - the link is in the text. I hope this helps.

Liz, so many thanks for your excellent video! Solved not only our problems with the bobbin winder (coning and inconsistent sponginess), but also with the breaking/frazzling of upper thread near the needle. Your comments on risks of filling more than 80% were very clear and revealing. Being the inquisitive guy that I am, they lead me to find that 1) the flanges of the our generic aluminum "M"-style bobbins are inwardly thicker ... which slightly reduces the amount thread that gets spooled and 2) the black plastic housing of the Bobbin Stop Sensor was rubbing against the bobbin causing erratic/inconsistent bobbin speed and 3) the black plastic of the Bobbin Stop Sensor was rubbing against the outer diameter of the bobbin flange causing erratic/inconsistent bobbin speed. I removed the offending interference locations from the Bobbin Stop Sensor housing with files and a Dremel tool.

It's great to know it was useful. I'm glad you were able to resolve the other issues too. Dremels are very useful!

@Julie1969 3 года назад

Very clearly explained, Liz. Thank you.

@PinholeQuilting 3 года назад

Thank you Julie! We're glad you found it clear. It's so important to get the bobbin tension right and it's a lovely little unit!

@candacegagnon3636 3 года назад

This was a great video explaining how this winder works. I got some good tips on using it. Was never shown how to use it when I bought the sewing machine!

@PinholeQuilting 3 года назад

That's really good to hear. We do Facebook Live videos on our page with tips too. You might want v to follow us on facebook

Thanks Liz, I might be more confident with this now!

@PinholeQuilting 4 года назад

Great - result! It's such a great unit.

@TriciaLockhart 3 года назад

This is a great video. I liked the detail and the extra images that really illuminated practical ways to keep it winding perfectly.

@PinholeQuilting 3 года назад

Thank you Tricia - that's good to know. A perfectly wound bobbin is so important!

@@TriciaLockhart perfect! I've been loving using it for some samples. It's very intuitive

@nwear2862 2 года назад

Love this video! Lots of great information. Would you pleases show a video of how to rewind a bobbin that was wound incorrectly? When I rewind bobbins the tension is always off. Thanks

@PinholeQuilting 2 года назад

Will do!

@smssms672 3 года назад

Great video. I was having tension issues, and winding the thread the around the disc tension worked great. I was having trouble with it slipping when I did it the other way. Thanks.
