Pre wound bobbins

[Shazbaz]

Hi

I wondered if anyone can tell me if there are pre-wound bobbins that can be used in a singer 111g155 and how do you fit these in the machine? Do you have to get a special metal bobbin that can be split open to hold the little pre-wound spools? 

Thank you

Oh yeah, Style G is what you're after. At least that's what mine are. I bought a machine a few years ago and it came with boxes and boxes of them in various boring colors.  Sadly, all V69. 2 brands, Hembob and one I can't recall right off. I bet I've got a couple thousand of them.

I wish they were V138. I always have trouble keeping the ones I wind from UNwinding before I get it into the machine.
