Here's how I get the bobbin thread up on top.

  1. Load the bobbin into the bobbin case/basket so it feeds against the direction of the thread slot to the output end of the bobbin tension spring. This usually means counterclockwise, but not always. Feeding it this way ensures that the thread doesn't ride out of the tension spring due to vibration.
  2. Next, with the top thread going through all guides, tensioners and take-up lever, thread the needle and pull back about 6 inches of thread.
  3. Lower the foot/feet, hold back the top thread so it doesn't get pulled into the bobbin case.
  4. Hand wheel the machine one cycle so the needle goes down and all the way up.
  5. Lift the foot/feet and the bottom thread should be easily pulled up with the top thread.
  6. Pull out a few inches of bobbin thread and sew!
  7. Remember to hold back the starting threads.
