When I told my family in a very excited voice that I got a thread tower with 80 spools of thread in it for Christmas they sighed & looked so bored they said oh that's nice.........people who don't get this will say that but I knew if I showed you all here how excited I was when I unwrapped this you will understand & share in my excitement. I was like a kid in candy store. I have pretty much filled it with my excess threads & each spot wil hold three spools but my Metler is just a tiny bit too big to fit in the spots. It will be a great space saver too. I am showing all four sides so you can see the rainbow of colours. I think it is just so pretty.I think it has one of every colour even peach but I had to place it in behind another colour as there wasn't any lol

What a lovely gift for you and just what the doctor ordered.
Know the feeling. I spent hours organising my new Hemingworth cabinet - 300+ colours.
It is nice to have understanding husbands. Mine bought me a cabinet to house my threads when I first bought my machine. It houses my scissors and glue stick and bobbins as I ended up buying the bigger thread reels. Neither of us knew any different before I bought the machine.
Congrats on your lovely gift and give that DH of yours a kiss from me.

I know your excitement, that's how I always feel when I get anything that's part of my sewing, embroidering or quilting. LOL It's got to where when the kids ask "what do you want me to get you?" they also add "now don't say thread" My favorite gifts are Gift cards for Jo Anns or Hancocks or Hobby Lobby, now what could be easier to buy than that? I did get 1 Hobby Lobby Gift Card for my birthday. Hurrah/Lillian

What a wonderful gift!!! I have a 6-drawer chest of Madeira embroidery thread (a present from my DH), but when it comes to all- purpose thread I only have an assortment of remnants plus white, ecru, black and navy. I would be over the moon with a tower like yours!
