Dealing with Thread


Welcome to the fifth week of the Creative Spaces Blog Hop!  
Today is all about dealing with thread.

I showed you two weeks ago the furniture I use for my thread, the cabinets from Arrow.



The Mod Thread Caddy will come with 4 fabric baskets to place all your fabric and notions in and 3 pull out thread/spool holders holding countless spools.  Place your thread in the racks in a color coordinated fashion, by size, by brand, or by material…..the options are endless!





The Modular Thread Caddy rests on casters allowing you to move it from place to place. Once in place the casters lock down in place and the bi-fold door closes to conceal the contents for a clean and neat look.  It fits all types of thread, even Aurifil and Signature!




I organize mine by brand and color.  I even have space to separate out the large spools!
My favorite organizer is one that Gutermann recently sent me.  It allows me to spin and choose which sew-all thread I want for my project.



How do you organize your thread?  Let me know!

Want to come hang out while I stream?  My schedule is always on my Facebook and my Twitter.  I also announce on Instagram when I go live.  We have a lot of fun, talk about sewing and quilting and of course have daily giveaways.  I am the giveaway queen after all.
