Bobbins

Make perfect stitches with sewing machine bobbins from Hobby Lobby! These small parts are essential for ensuring smooth and consistent stitching as you use your machine. Look here to find different options to meet your sewing machine’s specifications.

What Is A Bobbin?

Bobbins are small sewing machine parts that are key for keeping proper thread tension as you sew. Because of this, they are commonly considered one of the most important parts of the machine.

Quality bobbins, like our selection of Singer bobbins, help with smooth thread delivery. They also reduce friction and help prevent tangles.

Before you use a bobbin, you have to wind it with thread. You can do this with your sewing machine, or you can save time and effort by using a bobbin winder.

Along with being quick and easy, a winder ensures uniform thread tension, which helps prevent jammed stitches.

Types Of Bobbins

Not all bobbins are the same, with the main differences being their class and material. Different classes of bobbin vary in size, shape, and weight.

Class 15 bobbins (also called A-style bobbins) are commonly used in modern home sewing machines. There are also class 15J bobbins, which look similar but are not always interchangeable because of their more curved shape.

We carry both of these types, as well as class 66 and reusable bobbins.

Along with different classes of bobbin, specific machines require thread bobbins made of different materials, primarily metal or plastic.

Once you’ve identified the right kind of bobbin for your machine, make sure to stock up on more than one. This will allow you to switch thread colors fast and easy so you can get right back to sewing.
