Nancy, the only thing that comes to mind is to ask where this bobbin is located. I've had rogue bobbins when they were situated on the headside or footside of a piece and were passives, so didn't swap around. It was especially troublesome when the piece was on a roller and the edge of the roller was close to the headside or footside. This put the work quite off-center of the pillow, and made the bobbin(s) roll around the sloping edge of the pillow, and loosen the hitch, which would then hop off.

You have a fair number of bobbins on the pillow. How large is it and is it a roller? That could be your answer.

Hi all,
I've searched the archives but haven't found the answer to this
particular question: I have about 140 bobbins on my pillow, 120/2 thread, and
of the 140 one bobbin particular keeps unwinding--i.e. the working length of
the thread (thread leash) on that bobbin gets longer than on the other
bobbins.  I wound all of them at the same time, same spool of thread, of
course wound the same direction.  What might I have done during winding to
cause that one to misbehave?  I can't see a consistent difference.  Tightness?
Thanks.
