    Kilt does look excellent.
    A trick I use on bobbins is to watch the thread spool as I load the bobbin for how many top to bottom passes I load on. Then as I sew I keep a mental eye on the number of top to bottom passes that have gone into stitching. When I am one or two less than I wound on the bobbin, it is time to check the bobbin.
