What a great idea. This should work on "problem" threads, too. My Wooly Nylon drawer look like some kind of a rodent nest. Thanks, Lizz.

Storring bobbins has always been a big problem. At one time Dritz made something which looked like a thumb tack that fit into the hole, you'd push the thread into it followed by this device, it worked great. I have one left, it must be 25 years old. Has anyone else heard of them? Loved this idea, Press 'n Seal is something I'd never heard of but will try.

I started using this technique after I saw an add for a product that does the same thing. The Glad wrap is much cheaper.

I tried that product Dot , it looked like plastic wrapped around a cotton reel. You would cut a small length off and wrap around your cotton reels or bobbins. I found it was much better suited to grafting trees with and useless in the sewing room.

For bobbins, I like to use a small piece cut off of a piece of PVC tubing. Cut the doughnut shaped piece narrow enough to fit around the thread on the bobbin then cut it vertically so you can slip it over the bobbin. These plastic pieces can be reused again and again.

I love your idea! I have problems with bobbin thread going ever where. But now i will have control of this. Thank you very much.
