Just for Fun

forty-eight empty thread spools
December 2017
Just for fun, I kept the spools that I emptied in 2017. However, to be fair, some were not full spools, as I often purchase polyester thread in thrift shops and use it for bobbin thread. That said, I managed to use 48 spools of thread in 2017.

  6. That's a lot of stitching to have used all that thread.
    Now - what to do with the reels. Can they be repurposed or are they destined for the trash now that they have fulfilled their purpose.
