Cone thread holder
 
1 Attachment(s)
This is how I use my cone thread on my treadle. I thought others might find it interesting. I used an empty cone and drilled 2 corresponding holes through it to fit on the upright spool holder. I put a stick on Velcro circle on the inner cone and push the full cone onto it tightly. It works great and the thread feeds off it nicely.

I think that is a great idea. Very creative thinking.

Am glad you posted that idea ... was going to reroll everything on a smaller spool by hand and hope for the best! ; )

Clever of you. Is it less expensive to purchase cone's rather than spools? It seems like I am really going through spools. Thanks for sharing. BrendaK
