It depends on the sewing machine. They often have little arrows on the bit the bobbin goes in to help. Try looking at your manual or if all else fails, try it each way and see what works!

How do you thread and install the bobbin on a singer 6251 sewing machine?
Put your spool of thread on the silver prong on the top of the sewing machine. Run the thread through the tensioner by following the arrows on the front of the machine (through the little clip at the top, down in the channel to the right of the 'auto tension', back up the other side of the 'auto tension', up to the top again, around the little groove there then down the other side of the groove). Thread the needle from the front then tuck the thread down and to the left so that it goes through the little channel on the foot. Then pull several inches of thread straight back. Wrap the thread once or twice around the little circular thing with the groove in it that is attached to the left side above the foot (sorry, I can't find my instruction book and I don't remember the name of that thing). Pull the metal plate back that covers the bobbin holder (the one with the little window in it) and put your bobbin in there with the stripes pointing up. Slide the metal plate back part-way so that the little arrow on the left of it lines up with the little arrow on the base of the machine. There will be a small gap where it is not closed all the way. Step on the pedal to run the machine and the bobbin should start to wind. You can look at your spool to make sure the thread is running. Keep an eye on the bobbin and don't wind it too full. When you have enough thread on the bobbin, let off the pedal, close the plate the rest of the way, unwind the thread from the round thing, and use something to sweep under the foot to draw the thread backward so that you pull about five inches of thread out the back of the machine. Trim all the ends of the threads so that you have two threads about 4" long--one coming from the needle and one from the bobbin. Then you're ready to go. Hope this made sense...and sorry if it was too much detail but I wasn't sure how much experience you've had with sewing.
Instruction book Sears Kenmore model 2142 sewing machine?
First - it appears 2142 is a style not a model. The model number is on the front in a black and silver plate under the machine but in front when you lift it from cabinet. Get that number then go to Sewing Parts Online (linked below) and order it.
How do you thread a bottom bobbin on an Atland YM-260A-7 sewing machine?
If I'm not mistaken, all sewing machines have the same 'basic' structure so this means that if you just put the bobbin in the bobbin case in the bottom of the machine, hold about 5 inches of the thread out then dangle it over the back (away from you). Next hold about 10 inches of the top thread, that's been threaded through the needle, and with the other hand turn the wheel counter clockwise, (or clockwise, I think this varies per machine). The point is to allow the top thread to loop around the bottom one, and it should do that automatically. All you have to do is just turn the wheel until the needle dips down all the way and back up all the way. After this point you can do a couple of test stitches and if it hasn't picked up try it again, but it should!Good luck.
Where doe a sewing machine needle fall when it breaks?
Strange question, but anyway if the needle breaks off with no thread attached, it could go flying off any which-way. Check the floor around the machine and the table on which the machine is placed...and your lap, and anything else in the vacinity. If it breaks during sewing (that is, with thread attached through it's tip), it will likely remain attached and end up thrashing around in the bobbin holder. It could also end up there with no thread attached, so, in either case, check the bobbin holder first.
Does Horse Racing go clockwise or counter clockwise in Australia?
Melbourne (where they race left-handed, or counter-clockwise)Why does some states race clock-wise and other states race counter-clockwise? I was once told that it may go back to the goldrush when Americans came here. Americans run their horses in the opposite direction to the English and some states stayed with the English way and some like Victoria where there were a lot of American miners adopted the American way. Not sure if it is true or not but at least it seems plausible.

What size bobbin is used for Kenmore 385 16524000?
It depends on the model of the machine. If the bobbin is a top loading drop in bobbin, it's probably a class 66 bobbin. If the bobbin case is down below on the front of the machine, and you take it out to remove the bobbin, it's usually a class 15 bobbin. If you have your manual, it should tell you what bobbin you need. If you don't have your manual, go to managemylife.com, enter your model number. and you should be able to download your manual. On the newer kenmores, the model number is on a plate on the back of the machine, and will start with 385. and continue on. You need to enter the complete number. Bekhat
