Wright’s Bobbin Winder

Wright's Bobbin Winder at Hancock FabricsYears ago I used to be quite a seamstress. My daughters’ dresses all had hand-bound buttonholes, smocking and lots of handwork. Through the years, I’ve continued to sew and quilt for my own pleasure, and for gifts. Sewing brings lots of enjoyment, but also has it’s niggly frustrations. One major frustration is running out of bobbin thread and having to stop everything, disengage your sewing machine motor, and rewind bobbins.

At last, there is a solution! If your favorite Mother’s Day person is a seamstress, out of pleasure or necessity, she’ll appreciate the Wright’s SideWinder Portable Bobbin Winder. No more frustration of bobbins running out in the middle of a sewing project!

With the touch of a button, the SideWinder quickly and easily fills bobbins without having to un-thread and re-thread the sewing machine. Because it is a free standing machine separate from the sewing machine, you no longer have the bother of un-threading and re-threading the sewing machine to wind more bobbins.

Available at Hancock Fabrics, it’s on SALE for less than $30. I wish I’d had this years ago, but I’m going to get one now, that’s for sure!
