Just before Christmas, I went through all of my thread. I had many cones from a company I used to work for, and when they closed, I was able to take them. They served me well for a long time, but I noticed the thread was getting weak. I got rid of all of them. My intention is to replace them with the 100% cotton thread from connecting threads. I am not going to buy the cones...they are too large. I am going to start by getting a couple of the thread sets. We are building a shelf to keep my threads and bobbins on.
My question is for those of you who buy thread from them. How tall are the 1200 yard spools of thread? I want to space the shelves based on this size spool. I have regular size spools of thread that I get from Joann's but want my thread collection to be the 1200 yard spools.
Thank you for any help you can give me. Sorry for such a long story for just a simple question.
