ORGANIZING FLOSS, ET AL

 
I spent the day organizing my
DMC flosses by colorways...
I like to wind them on these bobbins
so I don't have to have them tangle
up on me when pulling out the
skeins....
I have been winding a few each evening
for quite a while now...

I can also see at a glance what colors 
I am low on...quite a few,
actually...👀

And at the same time
I chose possible
colors for embroidering 
my Winter Mushroom piece
which I  "invisible basted"
this morning...

I don't have any "exact"
matching threads, but
will use these "close" colors
that I have on hand...

*****************************
I also pulled out my next UFO
to be sewn together into
a small coin type piece:

A N D ...
I've noticed that I seem to be
working in the same color family
lately... 
even my Autumn Ojos uses
this color family...

Does that ever happen to you?

Hugs to you all,
