Thanks for all the validation. LOL. I wasn't asking for advice or if I should change. Just sharing what I do and I like to see what others do. Love the idea of using up random colored bobbins on scrap projects. I might do that with the bobbins I have on hand that have who knows what kind of thread on them. I keep those on a porcupine bobbin holder (along with my empty bobbins for easy access).

Just cut slices of the tubing about 1/4" (make sure it's small enough to fit in between the two round sides of the bobbin) and then make a cut in each ring so you can slip it over the bobbin. I bought a bunch of tubing to do this but now I can't find where I stashed it.
