Thank you for sharing your time and talents , I always enjoy your episodes. When I am working on a full coverage piece I do "cross country " stitching. ~Amy
I’m in my RV for 3 months of the year. I bring 7 projects with me. Each has its own project bag with every color needed for it. I keep my floss on rings so no bulky plastic containers. Everything fits in one big tote bag which also contains extra floss in plastic bags. My biggest project has 236 colors. My smallest has 30ish colors. It was no big deal to organize for the RV as that’s how I’m organized at home too. My master set is in a closet on floss rings on a sturdy wooden hanger which has prongs on it. It takes up very little space and I was able to eliminate the use of hard plastic containers. Have fun camping.
@dianemiller7994 thank you so much for commenting! I love the idea of floss rings but have only just started to dip my toe into that method. I've used bobbins since I was little so I'm so much more used to that method. But I love how the Rings take up less space and are so easy yo use generally. What type of floss drop situation do you use? Or do you use floss bags?
@@StoriesandStitches The only time I use floss bags is for silk threads. They can fray easily. I use floss drops - the ones from Atom Heart. They have several types, so you can pick and choose. Happy stitching to you.
@LidiasLeisurelyStitching thank you!!! I recently discovered Karen Puzzles and I love her videos! They're one of the things that all came together to rekindle my puzzling. It's nice to hear you enjoyed the puzzle parts 😊
@jeanjeanes1824 honestly at this point it's a bit haphazard lol. I have always sorted as I went - so deciding on a section and then finding all the pieces for that section. And maybe also pulling for obvious sections at the same time. Lately I've been testing out the "sort first" method by grouping edge pieces and then "like" colours. But it's a work in progress lol. I actually intended to talk a bit about it this video but accidentally deleted that part! Next time I sort a puzzle I'll talk through the process a bit more 😊

@amyp8237 thank you so much for watching 😊 I love cross country. It's the style that most often feels most natural to me.

Very nice stitching.
@@Linda-Lovestostitch thank you 😊
I'm interested in knowing your sorting method for your puzzle.
