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?
Thanks. :oD
I saw a real "MacGyver" way on pintrest
they put the cone in a reusable plastic cup
with a lid with thread coming out the hole in lid
then thread the machine as u usually do.

I've always purchased 3000-yard thread cones and use them on my
regular sewing machine with the vertical spool holder. I just
slip a straw over it and then slip a chopstick inside the straw.
Voila - longer holder to fit my large thread cones!
