Thread loading and why it is important

[@janicemckay5931]

I can’t thank you enough for bringing this data to my notice. I have been sewing for 70 years & that is the first time I have ever been shown this. 👏👏👏

As others, I thought the ribbon analogy was brilliant! Thanks for this informative video.

The ribbon twisting was a brilliant way to show what happens! Thanks so much... VERY helpful! 👏

Great to hear. Thanks

[@dawnjohnstone341]

Thank you. I have been sewing for years and never knew about the different thread loading. I have also been putting my little attachment to hold the spool in place the wrong way round. The trouble is, you don't know what you don't know, until someone points it out. Thank you ❤

I am so glad I found you and your Chanel. Thank you for creating such beautiful art and sharing your knowledge ❤

Thank you for explaining the twisting thread problem I have had recently.😊

[@beckyarender8078]

Thank you! You are so personable, also easy to understand, even for an "older" lady from the U.S. You are also quite lovely!

[@meredithwoolnoughartist]

Thanks so much Becky. Glad you found it helpful.

Thanks Meredith - your tutorial has made it really clear as to which thread to put on which pin!

[@meredithwoolnoughartist]

Great! Thanks for the feedback.

[@TheFrayedges]

Great tutorial Meredith, very informative, specially with the twisting of the thread... 😊

[@meredithwoolnoughartist]

Thanks Faye :)

[@shareesayers3572]

Thanks for the tutorial Meredith. It all makes perfect sense but is not something I had considered before.

[@meredithwoolnoughartist]

Its one of those things that you don't really think about - but it can make a big difference. :)

[@alissaralston6595]

This was great. Thank you.

[@amandas9902]

Great video thank you particularly using the example of the ribbon twisting, really informative!

[@meredithwoolnoughartist]

Thanks Amanda. Thats great to hear.

[@cydkunz200]

Well done, I learned so much! Thank you.

[@janicepardy2143]

That was so informative and explains something I have always wondered about. Thanks so much

[@meredithwoolnoughartist]

You are most welcome Janice. Glad it was helpful.

Brilliant and as others have said the ribbon demo was excellent. One question I have which you did not touch on was use of the spool cap and which size is best? Also does it make any difference whether the horizontal thread unwinds towards the front as you had it vs the back? Thanks

[@meredithwoolnoughartist]

Hi Jill. You choose the spool cap to suit the size of the thread spool you are using. Your sewing machine book should have more info on this that will be specific to your machine. I don't believe it makes a difference how the thread unwinds in the horizontal position - I would just say try it both ways and see what works best for you :)

[@jillyeo9257]

Thank you. Have now seen some
videos of your amazing embroidery /art. Really beautiful and super inspirational 😊
