What Kind Of Bobbin Do I Need?
So I have the bobbins that came with the machine, but I don't know how to tell what kind they are. What kind do I need to get?The reason I ask this is cause I've seen metal ones and plastic ones and I seen some that are called "class m", so I'm kind of confused as to what I should be looking for.
