    DONE THAT AND LOVE IT...........

    We did buy two different size tubing as the smaller didn't fit on a full bobbin as well.

    Just customize them to your own needs

    I've used this method for a number of years now. I like it better than the hair elastics as you can see thru the tubing to see the color of thread. With the hair elastics, you only see the color of the elastics. However, both work well.
