Any help getting a vintage Bernina 700 bobbin thread to catch? Also does the top and bottom threads need to be under the foot?

I've got the instruction manual (that's for 600/610 as I was informed they're practically the same as a 700) but no matter what I do, and despite it being set up the way the manual says too, I never see the thread getting pulled up into the foot?

Fave alternative/gothy sewing patterns?

Heyo! New here but longtime sewist.

I'm also a goth and have been since I started sewing, but every sewing pattern I find tends to be very, safe and traditional, I've taken a few simple sewing patterns and jazzed them up but nothing really compares to a gothic peice that the shape is designed for that type of style.

However if I Google "goth sewing patterns" I'll only ever get shapeless tee and dresses, or clearly ai generated patterns that don't go any bigger than a child.

Don't get me started on the sheer amount of goth sewing patterns being just Halloween costumes, or Wednesday's dress 🤣

Got any to share?

Any help identifying which model? Listed as a Bernina 700 but seller sent certificate with says the model is a 600. Really interested in it but I'd have no use if it was the 700 embroidery only.

It also has a 700 instruction manual, but yeah the purchase certificate from the 60s says it's a 600.

Only trying to figure out which one as Google says the 700 is a embroidery only machine.
