I was going to buy a thread holder for large spools, but, DH went into his shop and surprised me with this one.

You must have a special DH.... For those less fortunate, use a Parmesan shaker jar, bring the thread up the middle hole of the cap, and butt it up to the back of your machine. The thread will not jump around with the cap on. This works great and I bought the Parmesan jars at the Dollar Store for a dollar each! You can always have an extra one ready for bobbins.

Awesome! What I paid for mine, which I really like, makes me want to cry when I see what your DH made for you. He's a keeper, big time.
