    I use my machine. I have separate bobbin holders for each machine. I just wound 10 bobbins for my Brother that I'm sewing on right now. I've finally learned how to use cone thread and it really saves time to have them all ready to go.

    Love my sidewinder and use it for bobbins, fast and easy and can do a number in a short time with it.

    I have trouble getting the bobbin off my Viking. It seems to stick and I can hardly get it off. I bought a Sidewinder and I love it. It works very well for me.

    I use my sewing machine. I have heard that the bobbin winders are not that great and, also, not to use the pre-wound bobbins.

    I use the one on my machine. If it's a larger project, I try to wind at least 2 bobbins, and I try to keep at least one bobbin in white, beige or light grey thread for in between projects.

    I have an Easy Winder and I use it. I will admit that I am lazy and hate to have to unthread my machine just to wind a bobbin. The Easy winder solves that problem.
