oh that is great. i was trying to think how to store my connecting threads Essential threads. i have some Sulky thread containers but these wont' fit. i do have a deep plastic container and may do your trick with the dowels. thanks.

Nice way to keep your thread clean and dust free, not to mention color coordinated.

I recently purchased a Brother 4000D for embroidery and wanted to start with a full set of threads. I found Metro Embroidery Threads There has been some breakages but I think it's more me then the thread.

For quilting, both blocks and quilting I use Aurifil. I love this thread!

Gutterman is my second choice. I really like Mettler. It's nice to my machine.
