    I use two single row pill holders, like Mon. Tues. Wed. etc. I keep them under my acrylic extension table that fits around the arm of my machine, so I can see them easily and access them easily.

    I didn't know you could buy an additional storage box. Did you just order it from the web site or something? Please advise.

    My diamond came with a little case that zips closed, it has lots of see through plastic spaces for feet. I keep it near the machine and try to always put the feet I am not using at the moment in a space. If I do not put them in their place.....I lose them !!! It is nice because the feet actually fit all of my Vikings! I think that the husvarna company is pretty smart....the case makes me want to fill the empty spaces. $$$$$ for Viking!!!

    I use 2 clear fishing lure boxes to store my feet in. I removed part of two partitions for the larger feet and always return o the same slot (I labeled them in the bottom). They store under my machine. That said, for my older machine, I hang the larger feet (ruffler, walking foot, etc.,) in a plastic bag hanging on my peg board.

    This is the same system I have! The box is always handy and I can find the foot I'm looking for quickly and easily!!

    Like others have mentioned-I use small "fishing" plastic boxes with compartments. The larger one for my Bernina feet, needles, bobbins and I bought a smaller one for the embroidery module-more bobbins, emb needles, my embroidery bobbin and emb feet. They sit in the cabinet my machine sits on-handy.

    How funny I just got these in from Nancy's Notions a few days ago. But I got the large and small one for 9.99. I could not find that online today ... but this gives you an idea.

    I use empty pill bottles then label them and lay them on there side in a plastic pencil box. I have also use the empty pill bottles to store my bobbin tread in and label it according to what color is in the bobbin.
