    Has anyone found a solution for storing the Bernina 830 bobbins. They won't fit into anything I have.

    What do they look like? I've never seen one but my extra bobbins fit into the "barbie case" shelf for my Bernina. I do sometimes use a M&M plastic case to store extra ones or a lipstick clip case. Can you store them on top of the thread as some people do? They use a long golf tee and put it through the bobbin and through a spool of theard to keep them togther.

    I store the five that came with my machine in the accessory box, then extras that I've bought came in a nice little plastic stackable case. I keep them in that to reduce moving around and rubbing the silver off.

    That's exactly what I do!

    I purchased a Bead Storage System from JoAnn's that has 12 individual round storage containers in a flat box. The lid itself is not hinged but being able to put each bobbin in a round container helps. Also keeps bobbins from becoming unwound and all tangled up.

    Someone on a yahoo group said a Simplicity storage box of some sort... For just a few dollars, you can add a row of 5 bobbins to the Bernina standing case

    Yup, Joannes's has the Simplicity Box but I just use the storage cases my bobbins come in from Bernina. I just keep them in my drawer.
