Double-Decker Floss Bobbins

I LOOK AT ALL OF YOUR BLOGS. HOWEVER

MY BLOGGER WILL NOT LET ME COMMENTS
ON YOUR BLOGS. NOW I GET A DIFFERENT KIND
OF MESSAGE THAT SAYS "I DO NOT HAVE ACCESS
TO VIEW YOUR BLOGS". WHATEVER DOES THAT
MEAN? IF ANYONE KNOWS HOW TO FIX THIS
PROBLEM I SURE WOULD APPRECIATE THE ADIVCE!

THANK YOU.

I hope that all of you had a very

nice Halloween. Now that its over we await

Thanksgiving and Christmas. I have always combined

both of these holidays together ever since my hubby

and I have been married. I enjoy that season very

much because at those times I am not in the bed

dealing with environmental allergies.

There are all kinds of bobbins to hold floss. Everyone

is familiar with the small cardboard or small plastic

bobbins that is generally used in all of those plastic

boxes. But have you ever seen these?

 I found them this past Spring at the Thrift Store.

Someone definitely decided that they did not want

to cross stitch anymore. Anyway I have searched

in vain on the internet looking for these double-decker

floss bobbins. I cannot find them. I do not know if

someone made them or if they were bought this

way. I have never seen anything like them in all of

my years of cross stitching.

 So nicely wrapped. They have never been used.

 Look at the pile. All of these double-decker floss

bobbins were on huge rings. These bobbins are made out of

plastic but the plastic is not a thick plastic. Also the

plastic seems to have an almost glitter glow.

I will make a pattern for this double-decker

floss bobbin and post it next week for you. I will also

give you the dimensions of the pattern so you can be

sure to print it out in the right size.

 Take a good look and let me know what you think.

 These are not the same bobbins as I have above. These

bobbins are the large bobbins that sell online. These

do come in double-decker. However I have seen these

online and they do not look like the ones I have above.

 Thread Savers is also a source of floss bobbins.

These are very nice and made of wood. The directions

tell you how to use these. Arent these nice.

Of course if you still like to put your floss on those

small cardboard or plastic bobbins then thats okay.

You can keep these bobbins and glue scrapbook

paper on them. You can use pink paper for pink floss,

blue paper for blue floss and etc...

But if you are looking for an inexpensive change you can always

convert those bobbins to the Singer Sewing Machine metal

or plastic bobbins. These bobbins are not very

expensive and look so cute. You can nearly always

find those sewing machine bobbins at thrift stores.

Have a nice day and thank you for visiting

me
