I have just started doing some English paper piecing (love it!) and the first part of the process is basting the fabric to the paper by hand. Instead of using thread from a spool, I decided to use thread from the bobbins that don't have enough left on them to do much else. I have another set of partially filled bobbins for a machine I no longer use. I'll use those up next. :D

What a wonderful idea! I have bobbins with thread on them and I don't think I still have the machine they fit. I also have several paper pieceing projects in the works. Tomorrow I will put my bobbins in my EPP box! Thanks for the idea! Sherry

I do a lot of EPP and use bobbin thread. I also put spools of thread that is nearly gone in my basket to use that up also. I was given several spools of some kind of thread that was marked 5 for a $1.00. Use that for basting also.
