I think it keeps the thread from unrolling all over the place. :)

to my SP: your package should get to you by Monday barring any unforseen hiccups. i forgot to mention in my note to you that the things in the small bag were a special surprise for you. maybe you will be able to figure that out.

i am waiting with anticipation for you to receive your special package.

I'm also still on the bench. I'll be happy to share some of my leftover green and brownie Girl scout cupcakes and the leftovers from my other daughter's birthday party. *sigh*

I use the M&M tubes after the kids get done eating the candy. The bobbins fit in really well and keeps the thread from unraveling. The long tube will hold 15 and the smaller ones hold 8 bobbins.
