Alex Learns How to Make a Donut at Superior Threads

Bob & Heather Purcell invited Alex and John to come see their operations in St George, Utah. Capt'n John brought the camera so that all of you could join them. Over the next weeks we will go throughout the warehouse and operations at this fun and innovative firm.

Come along today with Alex as Dr. Bob from Superior Threads shows her how bobbin "donuts" are made. It will certainly give you a better appreciation of what goes into making those luscious little spools of thread. And the best part is, these donuts aren't fattening.

For more bobbin education, Bob has a great information section. Take a look.

Found it very interesting and so glad to see they are made in America. Must go to Superior Thread website and buy some. Thanks Bob

Very interesting and would love to have some, but I wish they made them for my 750 Bernina which takes the larger bobbin.

I began with Superior when I joined TQS the first month of its existence! I rarely use anything else in ANY of my sewing now. Didn't know it was all American but that's another reason. I've never had complaint ONE about their service, product, or education modalities. And I too LOVE my pre-wound bobbins! Thanks to Dr. Bob and Heather for their vision and dedication to their quality products.
