too hard? Or has 10 years of sitting on the bobbins weakened the threads?
Alice, I think it is 10 years old that is the problem. I had the same thing
happen. I had not made binch in years and just took the bobbins out of the
roll and began lacing. Threads were breaking all over the place. It was
very fustrating. Especially when it is a worker in a tally, I knew tension
wasn't the problem! Then I realized most of the thread was 10 years old.
It ended up that my husband flipped the pillow in a bazare accident and his
look of horror turned to astonishment when I thanked him! I then pulled off
at least 3 yards of thread off each bobbin to get the whole of the outer
covering off and started again. That solved the problem.
