    Default Needle threader on Brother 1500ps

    Don't give up using the needle threader on this machine. This video will have you threading the needle in seconds.

    Thanks for posting this...I've not been using the threader because it's not easy to figure out. I'll try it later today.

    I have this machine and the threader has always stumped me. Thanks for the video.

    I've had my beloved Brother for 15 years and have never figured out how to use the threader. I am going to try again now after my a.m. coffee......Thanks for the video......

    I figured out how to use it just a couple months ago, and I've had my Brother for almost a year. Won't thread it any other way now. Super easy once you do it a few times. Just make sure that the needle is in the uppermost position too...

    I am confused and curious. Is this an embroidery machine? I have a Brother quilting machine, but the needle threader is completely different. Mine has a button I push when the needle is all the way up, and the presser foot is down, that threads the needle for me. Much simpler than the video machine.

    I love my needle threader on my 1500S. It's my favorite feature. I've used it so many times it is just an automatic thing and doesn't take any time or thought.

    My Daughter has this machine and was able to use the threader.
    I have a straight stitch Babylock Jane with a threader and haven't had any luck using the threader. It is less aggravating for me just to thread it myself.

    Is it my imagination or an optical illusion? It looked like she threaded the needle from the BACK to the FRONT with the thread coming out the front of the needle!?!?
