I have one of those *cast iron sit behind the machine* thread holders. I have finally found a use for it!

Athe other day, I decided to use serger thread. I found a spool of thread that fit up into the cone and place that combo on the spool holder of my machine. It worked just fine.

Here's how cheap/frugal I am. I took a wire clothes hanger and bent it into the general shape of this thread holder with a coil of wire for the base. It is taller than my machine and threads easily. Cost $0.

You go girl! :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:
