Please let me know if you get this.<br />To get both ends of the thread on top of the fabric, hold the top thread in your left hand (slightly pulling it) and turn the wheel by hand so that the needle goes into the fabric and up once. As you do this use the left hand thread to pull the lower thread up through the fabric. You will feel it becoming loose at a certain point in the turn.Jackiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12998628507844056717noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5422137424280235275.post-9086625326900403602009-07-13T03:12:51.814+01:002009-07-13T03:12:51.814+01:00Thank you for the tutorial.

Your tutorial has given me a bit of confidence again!<br /><br />Quick question though. When creating a circle or a loop, do you turn the hoop around in a circle, or keep the hoop straight moving it up & down (and side to side).
