Hoodies for my Pfaff bobbins..... No bobbin will be left behind. Hoodies for all!!
Have you seen this clever idea? It is hair bobs (that is what I call them), they are the small ones. I just happened to be in a store the other day and was browsing and found these small hairbobs. I remember seeing this idea in a quilt magizines. So clever.
But I call them Hoodies. My bobbins looks so fresh and ready for the winter. I have a hoddie for each one. Even shared with the girls that came over on Friday! How fun is this?
No more tangled threads.....
I feel somewhat organized now...that is the key word, somewhat. I am so embarassed about my messy sewing room.....

What a great idea!
Hoodies! Ha, what a great idea!
They look so cute, and tidy. I remember my girls having those 'lackies' when they were younger. Lackies is Oz slang for elastic bands...
Clever ..... and they do look adorable! I have one of those circle bobbin containers that I keep for applique, but this is a great idea for everyday use and there is nothing more frustrating than trying to grab one bobbin and have it tangled up with a lot of friends.
I love the hoodies, it almost looks like your bobbins are smiling all lined up in the box LOL.

Clever idea. I never have that many bobbins in use since I tend to use either off-white or light grey Masterpiece pre-wounds for just about everything.
I use those too, for my M class bobbins (for the longarm).
Clever little idea!

I loved the idea when I also saw it and went out to get some and never used them I have to find them and try them out. Thanks for reminding me.
I've seen this before, but I think you have inspired me to give them a try. My bobbin cases are so unorganized, with loose threads. And yours looks so very organized. Plus, I like your term "hoodies" and "no bobbin will be left behind". Clearly you are creative and thoughtful!
Thanks for sharing.

Oh my gosh! What a FABULOUS idea!!!
Thanks so much for sharing!
Now I have heard it all!!
That is such a great idea!!!
So I was wondering if you wanted to still trade with me...pumpkins, for the Halloween swap.
I didn't get my bum in gear to make the Sept deadline. But life is settled now.

I am going to go get some of those. I am always fighting with my bobbin threads. Thanks for the idea.
THat is such a cool idea.
It looks like they are ready for a winter of quilting. It will be great to see what these bobbins create.
what a clever idea....thanks for sharing...I'm off to tidy my bobbins up and give them some hoodie advice!!!

u so funny, I thought you were sending us all hooded sweat shirts. dang
Barb, that is a really cool idea! Thank you for sharing it.
I hate those long threads on my bobbins. What a fantastic idea!
I've used them for ages for my bobbins.....and even if I have a spool of thread where I can't seem to find the little "notch" to put the loose end of thread into when I take the spool off the machine, I use those hair thingees. They are CHEAP at the dollar store.......discovered them about 6 months after I began quilting! Love that you gave them a name of HOODIES....cute!!!
I used them last year for a while but then the bobbins wouldn't fit in my case LOL.
