    Thumbs up I Just Found a New Notion for Bobbins

    I am more of a lurker than poster however I just found this website www.BobbinKnobbins.com . They have this little foam shaped horseshoe that goes around your bobbins.
    Since I'm a notion/gadget kinda of gal I had to buy some. They work great.
    I have over 20 machine new and vintage and I use them. The Bobbin Knobbins fits on the bobbins. They come with a case that you can label for each machine ,so you don't have to worry about tossing them in a box and wondering which machine they belong to.

    I use those itsy bitsy fabric pony tail holders.....you get about 200 for a buck in the hair aisle of the local Family Dollar. Just wrap them around your bobbin.....Or use toe separators from the nail dept....

    I have used nasal spray for allergies for quite some time. The little ring that goes around the sprayer is perfect for bobbins. I have dozens of them. And they all are around bobbins. They hold extremely well, and are easy to slip on and off.

    These are interesting. I am using the childsize pony tail holders right now, but toe separators sound interesting as well.

    I have a bernina 830 LE, and they have different larger bobbins, does anyone know if there is some storage box I could use for these. I now store them in the little case they came in, but the threads are a mess most of the time. HELP!!!
