I have found using a small plastic bag which I hang from the knob on a cupboard that is next to my sewing machine.

This came up on another thread recently and some members couldn't visualize it. So I took a pic of mine.
Note: I don't use an empty TP roll, but a half used one as the empty ones left too many creases on the last foot or so of my binding.

All in all I think answering the door with a toilet paper roll is better than hubby finding me choked to death by my own quilt!
That's hysterical!!! I can just picture your nose 1" from the needle. That was my laugh for today....thanks! You're too funny.

Someone has already gone one step further. You can buy a notion from Clotilde called a Binding buddie that looks like a wooden spool with a neckband. It reminds me of a tinkertoy. Personally, I have neck pain and having anything hanging around my neck like would be too painful.

I have been using one for months!Actually 2 of them. But I glued some of that rubber shelf liner to mine so it doesn't slip. Works great!
