SideWinder with Me and My Sister Designs


Welcome back to the Jolly Jabber! Today, we're chatting about one of Barb and Mary's favorite notions, the Simplicity Portable SideWinder. This little machine is so easy to use and is a great time saver. It also comes in two sizes, the Simplicity Portable SideWinder for smaller thread spools and Deluxe Simplicity SideWinder for small to large thread cones. Watch our video to learn how Barb and Mary use their Side Winder!

  4. I bought one once and used it for awhile but I dropped it (on carpet) and it never worked again - if someone gave me one I would try it again but doubt I would spend the money to purchase one

  11. Dang, just lost my comment. Short version, I've had the Sidewinder for at least 5 years now and LOVE it. I just wish it had been around when I wound every single color DMC thread carries onto bobbins for applique. It's a WONDERFUL tool - no need to unthread your machine if you have one of these.

  18. I have not tried this, did not know it was available to be plugged in and not just battery.

  19. I have never used a sidewinder but I'm thinking I should. I hate when you run out of bobbin thread and have to wind another one on your sewing machine in the middle of a project. I like the idea that you can plug it in.
