Question
I'm having trouble trying to figure out how to thread the bobbin into the machine. I think I have the spool threaded correctly but am not too sure, and can't get the bobbin thread to catch through the needle. could you please provide me with the info on how to thread both the spool and bobbin on the singer Model 717 sewing machine. thankyou.
Dear Melissa,
I have the idea that you don't have the manual for your machine. You can get one from the following link:

It will be very helpful for you to have this manual and will answer a lot of questions.
Good luck and happy sewing.
Sharon

I started sewing at the age of 3...thanks to my mom and grandmother, and I am now in my fifties. Home economics classes in junior high and high school helped me to finesse my skills.
