How do you store used spools and bobbins?
#1
I have just finished quilting a lap quilt, and I have some bobbin thread that is special, and I want to keep it with the spool, so when I use that thread again, I will find the 2 together. How do any of you store bobbins with spools? There has to be an easy way, but I just haven't been able to figure out anything.
Thanks for any advice or input you can share with me.

I use golf-tees to keep bobbins with spools. Actually, a friend of mine is a product demo specialist for various golf companies, and he wants to get market 'Bobbin-Tees' to golfer's wives, through my shop!

I raid my gardening supplies, I have a roll of light weight wire covered with green paper (looks, and feels like the twist ties you get on bread) cut off a pirce thread it through bobbin and spool swist ends and store in thread drawer! Works for Me! LOL

The easiest andn cheapest method I know is to put a Q-tip in the spool hole and add the bobbin over the Q-tip.
