Re: T13 How do you store your Thread?
We got a kitchenmaker to make cupboards with shelves and doors on them. Keep the thread in the boxes in numerical sequence so we can find it easily off the shade cards by number. Start at Madeira Rayon, then through Polyneon, Sulky, Kingstar and then Coats by Brand, Type, and then numbers. The thing is the shelves keep it tidy, but the doors keep it all dust free, and as well it keeps the light off which can make it degrade in colour and strength so less breakages on the machine. I really rate storing thread as important as oiling the machine so it runs without stopping and you can access repeat job colours quickly by number.
