I have had the cheapo bobbins fall apart - use just the flat half - I can't imagine using the whole bobbin... Maybe the whole ones would make a bracelet or necklace. It would be neat to see some pictures... I don't wear earrings so I just mostly joke about it. Maybe I should make my sister a pair.

For the ladies, those bobbins make a cute cute cute necklace. Wind them with different colored thread and glue it down. String them with pretty beads in between and on up the necklace-Voila! Precious necklace that retails for around $25-$30 at quilt shows!!! I'm thinking you could come up with some cutie pie earrings to match too![ATTACH=CONFIG]402710[/ATTACH]
