@curious.handmade: This genius sewing hack has saved me so much money. 💷💵 Use thread cones (or spools) on a domestic machine with an easy homemade thread stand. Make sure it’s good quality thread (not serger cones as the thread is thinner). If you sew a lot it’s brilliant as you save money and aren’t changing the thread constantly. #sewingtips #sewinghack #learntosew #moneysavingtips #sewtok #sewingforyoupage #threadstand #sewingforbeginners
Now fix bobbins running out every 10 minutes please

Just be careful that you’re not using serger thread cones.

Only use good quality thread suitable for standard sewing machines, not overlocker thread as the quality is lower. Why put in all the work only to skimp on thread that literally holds it all together

I’ve been taught they’re not the same kind of thread??? Is this all of a sudden no longer the case?

Thank you for this hack. 🥰 I have a large box full of thread cones. I didn’t know how to wind them into sewing machine spools to use them.

I think I have the same sewing machine you have. Do you have an auto threader? If you do can you do a tutorial on how to use it?

for those saying "don't use serger cones", I highly recommend looking into your local "cleaner supply" or commercial vendor for 3000y+ thread spools 🥰🤩 tex 30-40 is more than fine in most cases. 🙏♥

Great tip for a table sew. I have even bigger reels. So huge they don’t wobble around. We just drop them on the floor behind the machine and thread up.

I wouldn’t use that type of thread unless it was for the overlocker.

My machine really does not like this. It clogs up the bobbin compartment. I took it to the repair and they told me to just use the proper thread.

I just set the cone on the floor behind my machine. It doesn’t tip over and it has no problem coming up to the machine. This seems like a lot of extra steps.

I transfer my cone thread on to a bobbin it fits on thread holder and works great just another idea 👍

Aren’t the cones generally thinner then traditional sewing machine thread?

My sewing machine has a place on top for a second thread stick so I push a smaller thread roll in the bottom of my big roll and put it on that second stick!

This is such a good hack. Thanks for sharing. I used to put my thread spool in a jar but it would keep getting tangled.

My machine has the thread thingy vertical so I just clip a clothespin to it and the cone doesn’t fall off

Serger thread is thinner. It’s meant to be used in conjunction with other threads, not stand alone
