    Default Recycled bobbin holder

    I broke out a new peeling knife and wondered what could the cute little acrylic case be used for? It just fits my Bernina bobbins![ATTACH=CONFIG]602762[/ATTACH]

    Nice way to re-use that case. It's like they were meant for each other :-)

    I need something for my Featherweight bobbins. Presently I’m using a plastic pill bottle and they always fall sideways.

    I love to see what others find to re-purpose. My son always laughs at me saying I am a hoarder, no I re-purpose instead of putting into our landfills.

    How clever! I just love it when you can re-purpose something.

    Great idea. I really like to reuse plastic stuff. The second use is frequently better than the intended use.

    Great idea! Keeps that plastic out of our landfills! And, it is just the right size to travel to a quilt class or two!!
