RipStitcher you are hilarious.
Many of us have some ritual thing that keeps our sewing in order for us. I for one cannot have my thread cones butt end in the air. There is something just wrong with that. Nor can my spool be on the 'wrong' side of my machine. Visually it all needs to be in order for me. I am so glad my Aurifil spool caps can snap off and back on.
