If this goes elsewhere - please let me know!

I saw this in the latest Threads Mag (Jan 2009) and just had to see if it worked.  It's awesome!

Presenting... Plastic spiral binders to the rescue for your bobbin collection...

I think you can get these at office supply stores.  They trim to any length.  I just vultured these from some old books I'd made for some students.

Hope this is as helpful to you as it is to me!
