A finished quilt top deserves a finished binding waiting for it. This acrylic binding spool gives you a place to wind prepared binding strips as soon as they're sewn and pressed, so the binding stays clean and ready instead of piling up in a bag or tangling in a drawer.
The notched design holds the loose end of the binding in place, which keeps the wrap from loosening or unraveling while it's stored. When it's time to attach the binding, you can unwind it a little at a time as you sew rather than wrestling a long, loose strip that drags on the floor.
Many quilters like to make binding right after finishing a quilt top and keep it with that project until the quilt comes back from the longarm. Keeping a spool with each project makes that easy, and a few extra spools help when you have several quilts in progress. The spool also works for storing leftover binding that could become a scrappy binding later.
Its blue finish makes it easy to pick out among the rest of your notions.
