Of course yo can do this with your non-scrapies too.

BUT - I line up all of the bobbins that have colors I am not using, are low on threads etc - and use them when putting together scrap quilt pieces. Uses them up and clears the way for other colors when I need to refill.

That is a terrific idea!

Haha I do that too and I have a bunch of thread spools that I use up don't care what colors they are either. Who is going to notice anyways. LOL

I do this too.

Yes, any color thread works on scrappie quilts ... adds to charming idea of making a scrappy, doesn't it.

Smilies, Julie

I do this too and love how I feel when I've "cleaned up" my bobbins.

You are just full of great ideas today, aren't you, Julie! :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:

yep, I have done that too, and used up spools of thread the same way - especially those odd colors that I know I will never use again
