Hi Ruth!
-=> Quoting Ruth Haffly to Teresa Herman <=-
 RH> I invested in a set of these EZ Winders; you can wind a spool of
 RH> thread from a cone using the bobbin winder on the sewing machine.  The
 RH> first spool I wound looked crummy; the second one somewhat better.  The
 RH> third I've wound (so far) looks pretty decent.  One thing I found out
Are these things expensive?  I tried Julia's trick but my spool
(styrofoam) was a small one -- it was the only styro one I had.
It was still up too far to use it for a "plug" inside the cone
of thread.
The cones are much less expensive to use but I don't want to 
have to spend ten bucks on an adapter to use them.
