I spend way too much time hunting for the "right" bobbin. At my age, I often forget which bobbin go to which machine.
I solved that problem with fingernail polish. I have three different machines and I put a dab of red polish on one, gold polish on another, etc. That way I always know which machine it goes to. I also have bottom embroidery thread bobbins and I have those color coded too.
A great idea...now why didn't I think of that? Guess I'm just up to my nose in bobbins and couldn't think. Thank you!
