See this video on how to wind a bobbin with a portable winder. If I am working with fabric seams that are different colors. Like the photo below. In this case yellow on the bottom and red on the top. I like to have yellow thread on the bottom and red top thread. Instead of having to stop, take the thread off of my machine, and spin a bobbin with yellow thread, then re-thread the machine. I can use a portable winder and alleviate the hassle of re-threading.
