I have been reading all of these posts about using machine sewing thread "as it comes off the spool" and wondering, "But what about the bobbin thread?" That is, the lower thread on the sewing machine. Every bobbin I've ever wound, I've wound straight off the thread spool and just stuck the bobbin in the machine, which would make the bobbin "backwards". I can't say I've ever noticed any difference in the behavior of the bobbin thread. So do all of you "as it comes off the spool" posters wind your sewing-machine bobbins twice, in order to get the bobbin thread going the right way?
