Check that the thread path is clear of lint and verify that the needle size is appropriate for the C No. 50 weight.
Re-thread both the top spool and the bobbin, ensuring the thread is seated correctly in the tension discs.
To get the best results, ensure your sewing machine tension is calibrated for a C No. 50 weight thread. It is highly recommended to use a universal or quilting needle (sizes 70/10 to 90/14) for optimal stitch formation. Regarding care, cotton thread is best suited for fabrics with similar fiber content to ensure the garment or quilt ages uniformly. Store the thread box in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the cotton fibers from becoming brittle over time. When sewing with multiple colors, keep the original box for organization to identify specific shades quickly.
