Threading a sewing machine is a fundamental skill for any seamstress or tailor. It involves passing a thread through a series of guides and tension discs in the machine’s head, and then through the needle. This process ensures that the thread is properly tensioned and aligned, which is essential for creating even and durable stitches.
There are many different types of sewing machines, and each one may have its own unique threading procedure. However, the basic steps are generally the same. First, the thread is passed through the thread guide on the spool pin. Then, it is passed through the upper tension disc and the lower tension disc. Next, it is passed through the needle, from front to back. Finally, the thread is pulled tight and tied off.
