I was taught in Home Ec class to pull the top thread and bobbin thread to the left whenever you start sewing! This was in ‘76 or ‘77. I still always bring up my bobbin thread!

Actually I should have said that you don’t have to pull up the bobbin thread, just make sure the upper thread is going off to the right.
Sorry about that. If we were always having to pull the bobbin

The blob at the beginning of sewing
So MANY people complain about the blob of thread on the bobbin side of the fabric!
This is the trick that will help immensely.
