Bringing up the bobbin thread
Before starting your free motion machine quilting, it’s important to bring the bobbin thread to the top of the quilt to make sure it doesn’t tangle or get caught in the race and create a “thread nest”. In this video Marguerita McManus shows how to bring up the bobbin thread. This is a good technique for both decorative stitches and for free motion quilting.

Thanks so much for posting this! I am very very new to quilting (never completed one), and had no idea this should even be done. Thanks for making me more confident in my work as I go through this journey.
