Bobbin hint
Someone mentioned in my Layered Bobbin thread that they had trouble keeping track of specialty threads on the bobbins so I thought I would repost this hint. A while back, someone posted about buying the plastic hose, cutting off little circles and cutting one side of the circle open for keeping bobbins tidy. I loved the idea and bought a section. I added another helpful idea to my bobbin keepers.
When I have a different weight or specialty thread I want to keep track of, I write the information on the bobbin keeper with a sharpie and put it on the bobbin. (I stuck the 40 Wt marker on an old cone so it would show up on camera.)

It will depend on your bobbins but my Bernina bobbins tube measures 2 inches around with the tape measure or about 3/4 inch across on my square. Bring your bobbin with you to the hardware store so you can fit the tubing to your bobbin.
