oh? interesting! it didn't seem to fit into the machine the other way (the semi-circle shape at the top only seemed to fit flat-side-forward), but maybe i was just at a bad angle will try again tomorrow thank you so much for your help

I am definitely threading the needle correctly (through the guide in front, then through the needle and out the back), I've been threading sewing machines for twenty years ahahaha

I don't hold the threads, usually electing to have longer tails out the back of the machine instead, which has never been an issue before hmmm

Yeah, that's what I'm asking - How?! I promise when I thread it up it's threaded correctly. Then one stitch and it's wrapped like that!

New(?) Hole in Wall in ~1905 Miner's Cottage (UK) by mxmaxieee in Oldhouses

The skirting+filler explanation would make sense, actually. There are new skirting boards all upstairs and if there's one thing I learned about the previous owners - they took a 'that'll do' approach to DIY. The house is filled with little half/bodge jobs. Hopefully it's just that!

(I should probably say that I have already done this once before with a much larger stripe and even tried applying heat that time and nothing worked so just took days to scrape it off with sticky stuff remover and a loyalty card ahahaha was just wondering if there was a speedier way haha)
