Frequently Asked Questions
- What is the difference between Magna-Glide Classic and Magna-Glide Delights?
- Magna-Glide Classics use a plastic core and are a firmer, slightly heavier bobbin. Magna-Glide Delights use a cardboard core and are softer, often preferred for machines with lighter bobbin tension. Both are pre-wound; check your machine manufacturer’s recommendation.
- Why buy a case of 100 instead of a smaller quantity?
- If you quilt regularly or run a longarm quilting business, a case of 100 dramatically reduces cost per bobbin and ensures you never run out mid-quilt. The savings per bobbin at case quantity are significant.
- Is white the right color if my backing fabric is off-white or cream?
- For very cream or natural-toned backings, consider the Cream Magna-Glide Classic bobbins to avoid a stark white bobbin thread peeking through. White works best on true white backings and fabrics.
- How long does one pre-wound bobbin last on a longarm?
- Run time varies by stitch density and design, but most quilters get 15–30 minutes of continuous quilting from one pre-wound bobbin at moderate density.
- Do I need to adjust tension when switching to pre-wound bobbins?
- You may need a slight tension adjustment when switching from self-wound bobbins. Start with a test sandwich and check that the bobbin thread is not pulling to the top before beginning your quilt.
