How can I use my Mini Stitch sewing machine?

I bought one of those mini sewing machines stitching weekend, but obviously I'm very thick, I can not get that job! Do I have to either thread the bobbin thread through the needle? help! smart alec will not get the 10 points, only a real help they need thanks! (although you can get some smart alec Laughter) I just bought one of the mini point because I really do not have the space to a size suitable one. I just thought it might be useful to have when I do some last minute repairs, but it seems that I may be better off just getting a refund and the hand sewing!

More likely is that both threads do not pass through the needle. However, each one of those little hand held machines I've seen has been nearly useless. Consider putting the money back and a better machine. I hate to see beginners frustrated by poorly designed machines. http://www.cet.com/ ~ Pennys / FAQ / smfaq.htm This is how a works lockstitch sewing machines, demo'ed of the nerds: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bAhmYzmkvcY or more puritanical versions of both chainstitcher ( "loop point") lockstitch vs. Standard Sewing Machines lockstitch use.
