That works! My son has a 3D printer that has large plastic spools. I use them to hold scrappy binding. I have one for batiks, one for off white batiks and one for kaffe. I will sometimes purchase a jelly roll when I am getting low on any particular set.

I don't make binding in advance, just make what I need for each quilt as I make the quilt. The binding for my current project is wrapped around the Diet Pepsi bottle I emptied while I was sewing the binding together.

Who would have thought. I 'had' a large tube that fabric came on and only a week ago I tossed it. Who would have thought...? To bad I can't retrieve it. Not to worry I have another 15 yards of fabric on a large tube that I will save next time to repurpose for this.
Does anyone have any other suggestions for the long empty tubes?
