Thanks Jan in VA, that is good information. I have heard this before but had forgotten.

I don't worrry about it. The owner of the shop I go to says one spool lays down the other stands up, my teacher says she doesn't see a difference. If I"m having a problem, which is rare, then I take the spool off and put it either in a cup or on the table and it'll do fine. I have booth spool holders and they work fine but its not an issue for me. I usually use the stand up one to hold the bobbins that are for the on-going project.

Thread is like a water hose or extension cord, it has a natural lay and will twist and curl up if the lay is out of whack.

Hold the thread spool in your left hand.
Pull a 12-14" or so length of thread off the spool with your right hand. Continue holding the thread end in your right hand as you place the thread against the side of the spool. It will wrap around itself if the spool's wrong end is UP. Just reverse the spool and put it on the spindle. :) Jan in VA |
Thanks Jan, that was a handy piece of information I had never known about until now.........
