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.

bring the thread down to the right side of the tension knob, pull the thread between the tension discs, go around clock wise and continue across the top side which will pull the spring wire loop up and past the top hook. when you release the thread the spring wire loop will return to position.
Take the thread up and hook it around the top lever.
Bring it down towards the needle hooking it at the lowest point on the sewing machine head and then hooking it just above the needle, thread the needle front to back.
Hope this helps :)

What is the purpose of a bobbin in a sewing machine?
A bobbin winder is the part of a sewing machine that takes the thread from a spool of thread and winds it on the bobbin. The sewing machine bobbin is a mini-spool of thread, made of plastic or metal, that holds the thread that will be on the underneath portion of your fabric when you sew. The top thread comes from the spool of thread and the thread on the bottom side of your fabric comes from the bobbin. Instead of winding the thread on the bobbin by hand, long and tedious, the machine will wind it for you if you load it up correctly. Check your owner's manual for instructions. If you don't have a manual, do a google search for it by entering the name of your machine branch and the model # and it will probably find one. Also, any experienced sewer can show you how.

How do you start sewing from a sewing machine?
Every sewing machine is a little different, so be sure to read your manual. You want to make sure that the machine is threaded correctly from the top (through the mechanisms and through the needle) and the bottom (called the bobbin.) Most sewing machines have a foot pedal, which you step on as you position the fabric to pass under the needle.

What is a sewing bobbin?
A sewing bobbin is a small spool of thread that goes underneath the needle and sewing platform. It provides the lower thread for the sewing machine. Different models of machines use different bobbins, but most machines require you to create the bobbin yourself.If you'd like to see a picture of a typical sewing machine bobbin, visit the "related link" below.If you look at a diagram of the way a sewing machine works, you can see that when the needle goes down to the bobbin, the bobbin thread is pushed around the upper thread, and that is how the two pieces of fabric are joined together.The upper thread goes along the top of the seam, and the bobbin thread goes along the bottom of the seam.

Whats is a small spool that feeds thread up to interlock with the upper thread and form a stitch?
The smaller thread feed at the bottom of the machine is called the bobbin.
What does the tension control on a sewing machine do?
The tension control on a sewing machine determines how tight or loose the thread in each individual stitch is. The top and bobbin thread tension is like a tug-of-war. If each side is pulling equally, you have perfect tension. Imperfect tension is evidenced by thread loops on the bottom if the top tension is too loose and the same on top if the bobbin tension is too loose.

Sewing machine Singer 6212C will not pick up bobbin thread?
Either the bobbin has been incorrectly wound, installed incorrectly, and the upper thread hasn't been fed correctly. Sometimes the wheel to feed the upper thread is moved in the wrong direction.
Why needle not able to draw up thread?
The needle does not draw up the bobbin thread. In actuality, there are two "needles" used. The one you see, that moves up and down into the fabric, and another, underneath, which pushes the bobbin thread through a "loop" in the thread from the top needle. When the top needle begins to raise up, it pulls the threads tight. If your problem is that the top needle goes through the fabric, but does not "sew" it, first check to make sure the bobbin has thread in it. If it does, then check to make sure the machine is threaded properly. If it is, then the problem sounds like the bottom "needle" is not meeting the top needle at the precise time to push the bobbin thread through the loop. This is called being "out of timing". Just like in a car, all the cylinders have to be in the right place at the right time to make the engine run. Same thing in a sewing machine. The needles and the thread have to meet in the right place at the right time to work properly. If you are out of timing, unless you know alot about your machine, it will require a repairman to remedy this situation.
