I bought some of these at our $ Tree about 3 months ago. I love them. I haven't tried to refill one, yet.
Good buy.

The local Dollar Tree didn't have theses. The manager had no idea what I was talking about, never seen any. The one in the next town had them on the rack at the register. I guess it depends on the thinking of the shelf stocker.

Ooh, good find! I will have to go look for these! I use a paintbrush to baste the body of my quilts, but these would be fantastic for binding or other smaller projects.

Dollar stores have some of the BEST quilting supplies, you just have to be a little creative.
