This stand is made for large cones. It is made to be efficient and to spool the thread with even tension.

Nancy Notions has it on sale. It's one of the best buys I've seen in awhile for this thread stand.

Forgot to say it can be used vertical or horizontal.

This stand is the best I've used.

i put mine in a empty fruit jar next to my machine. works great

I bought a cheap plastic thread stand at Jo-Ann's for about $7.99. The weight of the cone seems to hold it in place just fine. Hasn't tipped over, yet!

Sewhappytoquilt, I just love the stand you made out of a mug tree. So clever!

I also bought an inexpensive thread stand at Jo-Ann's and used a coupon, liked it so much that when the notions were on sale-----bought 2 more and gave them away to my quilting buddies as grab bag goodies at one of our weekend quilting parties

I agree! I have that stand and it's wonderful. I actually have 2 of these, one I got from JHittle and the other from Superior threads. Superiors has the slight edge because it has thread holes in the side as well as the top. I would buy it from Nancy--same holder but on sale!

ARGH! Wish I had decided two days ago I needed one- I JUST placed an order from JHittle.

LOL! That's why I have 2--got the JHittle one first and then saw the one at Superior! I would have been fine had I not seen the video;)
