    I Love Thread Drops. In all my years of stitching I have never heard of them and now that I have, I am going to start making them. I have several wips going, so now I will have to put the wips up and make thread drops. Thanks so much for your tutorial.

    I’ve used Christmas cards to make floss drops, but never thought of photos! What a great idea, especially when you have duplicates (remember when we got a second set free at the drugstore?!) or similar photos that don’t all need to be in the photo album. This is also a great way to justify my scrapbooking supplies since I never have time to do that craft lol. Shelly

  • @blueridgestitcher3424
    @blueridgestitcher3424 5 лет назад

    Thanks for making this video. I love thread drops but woodier how people store the thread after they finish a project. Do they take the thread off and store it for another project? And when they show their thread drops they look so full. Like someone will show all their DMC for a project but it looks like it has about 3 or 4 skeins of DMC on the drop. These may be dumb questions but I've wondered about it for some time now. Thanks for any insight you can give me.

    • @CrossMyStitches
      @CrossMyStitches  5 лет назад +1

      Susan, After I finish a project I will either put the floss back on my bobbins or I will store the thread drop with my other full skeins and use it on another project when I can. As far as the fullness of the thread drops, it really depends on the length of their floss on the drops if you store it shorter than I do mine then it will look fuller. Hope this helps!

    • @CrossMyStitches
      @CrossMyStitches  5 лет назад

      Great idea with the kits. I am going to start using them for my DMC when I am kitting and know I will not need a full skein on the project. Buying skeins for every project can get expensive.
