Bobbin storage

2 04 2013

Here’s a great idea I saw on Facebook the other day — using ice block trays for storing bobbins! I happened to have an old tray with large openings, just perfect for three of my Handi Quilter Sweet Sixteen M size bobbins. This particular tray will hold 48 bobbins, and I only have about 20 or so, so there’s plenty of room for more 😉

Even better, this storage system slides neatly onto the shelf under the HQ Sweet Sixteen table.

Suggestion: As this ice block tray came with an old fridge, and I’m not sure they make trays with this sort of depth or width these days, perhaps try a secondhand store or op shop.
