Super Simple Bobbin Covers
Is your bobbin thread is running amuck?
Supplies:
5/8"
clear plastic tubing from the hardware store
Gardening snippers
Buy some plastic tubing
from your local hardware store. My hubs picked mine up
from Lowes and they put a big huge sticker across the
length of it, which left me with a mess of YUCK to scrub
off of it. So, my suggestion is to request that they
wrap the sticker around the very top of the tube so it's
hanging off and sticking to itself, so that way you can
just not use that tiny bit that the sticker is on.
Anyway, here's what it looks like after being
de-stickified:
Cut it into 1/4"
slices. I had some hefty scissors that did cut it, but
were a little rough and didn't get a clean cut. Then my
DH mentioned that at Lowes they used garden snippers to
cut it, so I grabbed ours and VOILA! Perfectly snipped
little cheerio-looking things.
Cut one slit into each
circle, then clasp it around your bobbin thread.
Twirl it around til the
end of your bobbin thread is secure, no longer runing
amuck and driving you nots! (If your thread level is
rather low then this won't fit snugly, but it still does
the job.) Now, wasn't that easy?
