Sewing {Thread} Holder

After looking at all my thread on two table for the last 8 months I finally got my Sewing Thread Holder done! Yah!






I thought about buying these but since, when I sew, I like my top & bottom threads to match I needed a way to store my bobbins with the spools. This wall rack will hold 128 spools.


I cut some wood "shelves"(1x4's cut in 1/2 length wise= about 1 5/8" wide by 30" long) & hammered in some nails on the front side(1 3/4" apart) for the bobbins. I found this great idea to secure the end of the thread to the bobbin. Its just clear plastic tubing I cut to fit the bobbins(found at Home Depot).


Its so nice to be able to find what color I'm looking for. Now I just need to fill it up.




Happy Sewing!
