    I use my empty spools, wooden (had some for a long time) and the plastic ones to make pin cushions for sewer friends for gifts. Don't have any to show now but I will very soon and will post them. I ask other sewers to save theirs for me.

    That is way too funny. Suppose to be a toy for the quail but ended up entertaining the bf. Just like Big kids...LOL
