How To :: Improvise a Thread Holder.

Linda wanted to try her hand at a Twin Needle 

for the first time on the weekend....

I have a Thread Holder Stand Thingy

which I pull out when using a Twin Needle

to hold the 2nd spool of thread necessary to achieve the perfectly symmetrical lines with the glorious Twin Needle

not being much of a gadgety person

relying on the merest of essential sewing props & tools 

I embarrassingly found my

Thread Holder Stand Thingy 

bereft of an integral part

which meant I had to revert back to my original Thread Holder

the one I used before I discovered the Stand

a tea cup

the trick with using the 2nd thread

is containing it

without constraining it

I would never have thought to share this snippet of sewing improvisation

if Elise, who was sitting opposite Linda,

hadn't said that she thought others might like to know

if you do find it helpful, you have Elise to thank....

thanks Elise. x
