Thanks Ruth for remembering my suggestion :D Then clip a binding clip (like the ones we use to clip the backing to a table when basting the 3 layers together before quilting) to the lid of your sewing machine and thread the thread through it before threading the machine - prevents the thread from hanging up and breaking.
