I do bobbins as well, except since I acquired most of my DMC in college when I had nothing better to do, I organized it right away. <br /><br />Can't believe they turned off the pool heater. In Texas, they're pretty unnecessary but I can see the need for one is San Francisco.<br /><br />Oh, and the flat stanley is cute. I have that book and it's sequel.

That is a huge job! I got some small Ziploc baggies, made labels numbered in order per their DMC numbers (3 or 4 numbers per baggie) & then I file those in plastic shoe boxes. I came up with this system back when I was in my cross stitch life #2. Works for me but I see where it would be really nice to just look & see all the colors at one time for the most part : )Shirleehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04117632465099828622noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6479870152494411695.post-56192972606017908202012-06-18T16:21:21.903-07:002012-06-18T16:21:21.903-07:00I don't know what I'm most impressed with,...I don't know what I'm most impressed with, the sunset, the organized floss, or the cherries!!Barbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16292519625560497199noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6479870152494411695.post-15427662308636307292012-06-18T16:06:50.560-07:002012-06-18T16:06:50.560-07:00Wonderful sunset photo!
