Hi all
In the ongoing tidyup, I have a couple of items to give away. One is a
bobbin roll, in black cotton fabric with a carousel-animals print, 19
pockets. 'as is' - recipient might want to wash and press it ;)
It is nicely made. I'm using clear boxes for bobbin storage now.

Don't worry carol - I do that too!!! like you say the beads on the bobbins are
half the pleasure. I've adapted some of my left over beads into earings. this

I must be even more peculiar than I thought!
I always put my bobbins in their bobbin-bags/rolls with the spangles
showing - I love spangling as well as lace-making, and like to see the
spangles!

I generally only use a bobbin roll to keep empty bobbins on. As each roll is
made from different fabric, I know which bobbins are in which roll.

Hi everyone, me, too, I put my midlands bobbins in head first. I like it
that the I can see the spangles. I pull out each bobbin to check what
thread it's got - inefficient use of time, or just more relaxing

I put my bobbins in their pockets in pairs spangle first (or tail first in
the case of non-spangled bobbins), so the head with the thread is sticking
out and I can see how much thread and what colour is on each pair or if
they're empty. So does everyone else whose bobbin roll I've ever seen.

I know this probably doesn't set the thread as well as a bobbin tree, but somebody
might find it helpful somewhere. I am sure I am reinventing the wheel.
I have been meaning to make myself an embroidered bobbin roll. I did a lovely one for
