From tangled to organised

My embroidery threads have been kept in the same box for some 20+ years and it was getting to the stage that when I needed a certain colour there was too much time spent trying to de-tangle it from it's neighbours. I decided it was time to take charge of the situation, so I bought myself a couple of plastic boxes that came with card bobbins. It only took me ...like about a month!!! (of part-time detangling) and now...drum roll please.....

No excuses to not finish all those unfinished projects now!

  1. Well done! Bobbin winding is a pretty boring (never ending) task but it makes a HUGE difference and it really pays in the long run (mine have been stored like this for a while now)! Looking forward to seeing what you stitch now :-)

  3. Impressive! They just look so inviting now, all rainbow-ey. They remind me of a new pack of felt pens when I was a kid!
