How do you set a machine thread?

Published in Sewing Machine Threading 1 min read

Setting a machine thread, specifically on a sewing machine, involves a sequence of steps to ensure the thread properly feeds through the machine and creates a stitch. Based on the provided reference ([Part of a video titled How To Thread A Sewing Machine | #beginnersewing - YouTube]), here's how you do it:

  1. Thread Path: Guide the thread through the various guides and tension disks on your sewing machine. These guides vary depending on your machine model, so consulting your sewing machine's manual is crucial.
  2. Needle Threading: After going through the guides, pull the thread tail out the back, so the thread is straight across the front of the needle.
  3. Through the Eye: Thread the needle by passing the thread through the eye of the needle.
  4. Securing the Tail: Once threaded, pull the thread tail towards the back of the machine.
