Frequently Asked Questions

What machines is this bobbin thread compatible with?

This thread is the Janome-recommended bobbin thread for all Janome and Elna sewing and embroidery machines. Its #90 weight and 2-cord construction are optimized for the bobbin tension systems used in these machines.

Why use a dedicated embroidery bobbin thread instead of regular thread?

Embroidery bobbin thread like this Janome #90 weight is significantly finer and lighter than standard sewing thread. Using it in the bobbin reduces bulk on the back of embroidered designs, helps maintain even tension, and minimizes the chance of the bobbin thread showing through on the front of your fabric.

Can I use this thread in the needle as well as the bobbin?

No — this thread is designed exclusively for use in the bobbin. Its #90 weight is too fine for use as a top thread. Use standard 40-weight embroidery thread in your needle for best results.

How long will an 800-meter spool last?

An 800-meter spool provides a substantial amount of thread for machine embroidery. Depending on the size and density of your designs, a single spool can fill multiple bobbins and last through many embroidery projects before needing replacement.
