Re: Sewing with the bobbin thread
Wow! That is awesome... Thank you Kenneth! I never knew how to do that!

I am blessed to have my own sewing room. I store my many threads on the wooden dowel wracks purchased from Joann's. They are arranged by color and when exposed are beautiful to look at. I have them mounted on the wall side by side 3 abreast and 3 high and wrapping around the corner above my sewing center. I have them covered with a cloth drape which is similar to a curtain with a dowel holding the drape in place at the top. It doesn't look real pretty, but my thread stays clean and it is available at my fingertips. The bobbins are stored in the half tube shaped bobbin holders arranged neatly in the drawer under my machines. They are handy and the bobbins click right into the holders. I store my notions in various sized plastic labeled drawers, on wheels, tucked under one of the sewing tables and my cutting table. My buttons are in jars inside a small plastic tub in one of the cupboards my husband installed. He purchased them at Lowe's home center and I have 2 sets of 6 cupboards with 2 shelves each. Fabric is stored in clear plastic totes and labeled. Even though I have 2 rooms dedicated to my sewing I find I am running out of storage space. I am a quilter too and have a short arm quilting machine, which takes up one half of the room.
