Usually on Sew, Sew Saturday, I share something I've sewn during the week, a fun pattern or tutorial. However, I mentioned last week that I wanted to have a linking party for thread organizing ideas. Today and for the rest of the week, I will have the linking party open so you can share how you organize your sewing thread!!
Thread. We all have it, love it and keep buying it.
Why do we LOVE thread so much? Is it the colors, the textures or just the mere fact of collecting it!!
Ahh...the art of collecting. It's like an addiction. We just want ALL the colors.
My little collection is minor compared to some I've seen, but here are a few of the ways I have stored thread...antique soda crates. Click here
Old tool box...
Each thread in the tool box has a golf tee with a flower glued on top and a mini hair elastic around the bobbin..
The hair elastic can match the thread, but it really keeps it from unraveling. Click here
Golf tees with pretty flowers on top...click here
Here are 2 ways to store your bobbins...great for travel or sewing classes. Click here
or my latest post for small storage...click here
I found this idea on Pinterest and it is fabulous...I must make one of these. The copyright statement from The Creative Homemaker blog allowed me to post the pictures with a link...definitely click here for their blog!!
The bobbin is right there with the spool...so cute!!
Ok...now it's your turn!! Let's see how you store, organize or carry your thread. Show us anything to do with THREAD...
THREAD, THREAD AND MORE THREAD!!!
Linking parties are easy...here are steps to join in on the fun...
Thanks in advance for sharing,

Linking parties are easy...here are steps to join in on the fun...

- link up to the specific project post, not your whole blog. Makes it easier to link right to that post and not search through your entire blog. To find the http address to a specific post, just click on the Title of "that" post. Copy and paste the address that's at the top of your computer into the linky steps.
- link an old or new post pertaining to THREAD ONLY
- visit other links to share some blogging love! You know we all love comments!
- linking is open til Saturday night, so plenty of time to join in
Thanks in advance for sharing,
~Karen~
