Wow, look at the cool thread rack! I wonder if this was handmade or they converted something else to make it?

Going to the website is it in the first picture to the left of the machine?

I think that's a lamp. Sure looks like one to me.

Holy cow. It looks like a shop! I'm trying very hard not to be jealous, it isn't nice.

We're in NY, too - the Finger Lakes. Cold and blustery today. DH just "had" to have me look at the Buffalo game so I could see how much worse it was there - and then told me it's headed this way.

It's a good day to spend in a lovely room like yours! Thank you for sharing.

I love the look of pretty thread on a rack. It is my version of good art! If you run out of room on the rack, place a straw over the spindle, put two spools of thread on the straw and cut the straw length so it won't show. I do this to hold my bobbin with the matching thread on the rack.

Thanks for the great tip. I would have never thought of adding a straw. My son also made me three bookcases, there great, really big ones. There loaded down as well, seems like there's just never enough room.

Ok now I'm really curious which picture is the thread rack in? I know I need glasses but I'm just seeing a thread rack.

This is one of my bookcases, the other two are much bigger. Of coarse one has lots of fabric on it?

Thank you, my son did all the work for me, built my table and ruler rack. He even put outlits in my table for me for my machines.
