Has anyone ever MacGyvered way to have regular sewing machine hold thread cone?
Craftsy wrote:
A couple of years ago or so, I saw a sale for cones of thread at a very good price so I bought a couple. I've since never been able to figure out how to use them on my regular sewing machine. When I went around Xmas to fabric store, they told me that those were for sergers and that I couldn't use them in any way on a regular sewing machine. Well, I've never been one to believe something can't be done until I've exhausted all avenues. I _still_ may not have figured out what I can do to use the cones on the single slim spindle on my Singer but thought maybe someone here had created something that would do the job. I thought it couldn't hurt to ask. Has anyone figured out anything that works? You could try something like this: http://www.amazon.com/Dritz-921-Cone.../dp/B0019KDYL2 Either to hold the cone and then thread to the rest of the needle-threading path, or to hold the cone and wind bobbins, then use them in place of spools. I have a couple like that, I use them when I need to use serger cones on my Singer. NAYY, -- Beverly http://ickes.us/default.aspx |
