Right now I'm working on getting all my floss for upcoming projects onto bobbins and in the floss box! I started using a cordless drill that makes winding the bobbins much faster now lol

@MrJameGumb I still do all mine by hand. 🙂 I have a bit of OCD, especially when it comes to organizing cross stitch & other creative supplies. But I'm also a little strange to most people because I actually enjoy winding bobbins almost as much as I enjoy stitching. I think I was just wired to love textiles, art, crafts--anything creative altogether, whether it has to do with the supplies to make pretty things, organizing them, designing a new project, kitting it up--whatever. I just love it all!

I actually kind of enjoy winding them by hand too! I just have so many that I'm behind on that I needed to speed through some of the backlog lol
