Way too cool!! Both your thread holder and your blocks!
Is there a screw for each spool of thread? I need to get my thread organized but I think I would only need 2 yardsticks. Although I am thinking of placing an order at CT.......

and a quick way to measure an approximate yard of fabric-just hold it up to the wall! Hubby sure made quick work if it, too.
