Faster colour matching
Keep the bobbin beside the exact thread that filled it, reducing guesswork between close shades and different thread weights.
Keep each bobbin with the thread that wound it
Match twelve bobbins to twelve spools at a glance
The Gypsy Quilter Bobbinis connect wound machine bobbins to their matching thread spools, making it easier to identify the right colour, fibre and weight later. The flexible rubber holder fits Class 15/A, L and M bobbins and adjusts around many thread-spool diameters.
- Keep the colour match together instead of comparing a loose bobbin with rows of similar thread.
- Secure the bobbin to its spool for a tidier drawer, rack or project bag.
- Works with popular bobbin types including Class 15/A, L and M.
- Twelve reusable holders in bright assorted colours.

The matching bobbin stays with its matching spool
When several shades look similar, a loose bobbin can be difficult to identify. A Bobbini holds the wound bobbin directly on the parent spool, helping you find the right combination for the next seam, repair or embroidery project.
Tidier thread storage
Pairing two related items together helps reduce loose bobbins rolling through drawers or disappearing into the bottom of a project box.
Ready for the next project
Retrieve the spool and its matching wound bobbin as one organised set, then remove the Bobbini before loading the machine.
A flexible bridge between bobbin and spool
Pair, stretch and store
Three simple steps to keep the match together
Use only gentle pressure and stretch the flexible holder no farther than needed for a secure fit.
Choose the matching pair
Identify the wound Class 15/A, L or M bobbin and the thread spool from which it was filled.
Seat the bobbin
Guide the Bobbini centre post through the bobbin opening so the wound bobbin rests against the centre section.
Secure it around the spool
Stretch the flexible outer loop over the thread spool and position it so the bobbin and spool stay together in storage.
Before sewing: remove the Bobbini and separate the bobbin from the spool before loading either item into the sewing machine. It is a storage organiser, not a machine attachment.
Check the bobbin class as well as the spool fit
Compatible bobbin types...
- Class 15 / A-style bobbins

Keep in mind...

Not sure which bobbin you use? Bobbin dimensions and centre openings vary. Check the sewing-machine manual or compare the marked bobbin class before ordering; do not rely on appearance alone.

Keep unused holders in a cool, dry sewing drawer or container and away from prolonged direct sunlight.
Bobbini bobbin holder FAQs
How many Bobbinis are included?
This TGQ018 pack contains 12 reusable rubber Bobbini holders.
Are bobbins and thread spools included?
No. The bobbins, spools and thread shown in the official images demonstrate how the holders work. This listing is for the 12 assorted Bobbinis only.
Which bobbin classes fit?
The manufacturer specifies Class 15/A, L and M bobbins. Check the bobbin class in your sewing-machine manual because visually similar bobbins can have different dimensions.
Will they fit every thread spool?
The flexible outer loop adjusts around many spool diameters. Do not force it over an unusually large industrial cone or any shape that overstretches the rubber.
Which colours will I receive?
The pack contains assorted bright colours. Official photography shows blue, green, orange and pink, but the quantity of each colour may vary.
Can I leave a Bobbini attached while sewing?
No. Remove it and separate the spool and bobbin before either one is placed in the machine.
What is the difference between Bobbinis and Thread Peels?
A Bobbini connects a wound bobbin to its matching thread spool. A Thread Peel wraps around the spool itself to help stop its loose thread end unwinding.
Is TGQ018 the 12-pack?
Yes. TGQ018 is the 12-piece bag. TGQ017 is the larger 60-piece jar, and individual holders may also be sold separately.
Pair it once and find the match faster next time
Use the 12 assorted Bobbinis to organise favourite sewing, quilting and embroidery threads without leaving matching wound bobbins loose in the drawer.
