Boss of Floss (Sorting part two)

After reading all the encouraging comments to my Sorting post yesterday (thank you!), I  immediately felt motivated to do something about The Floss Situation.  So yesterday evening and this morning I spent a total of about 3 hours sorting floss that wasn't already more or less organized in one of my floss boxes. I found floss in other boxes, baskets, project bags, my wip basket and cabinets.  Pictured above is just the white and cream floss I found. Clearly I'm worried about running out of white floss because I found about 6 new skeins of DMC Blanc!


Judging from yesterday's comments, zip lock bags are the best choice for holding your stash.  These were just ones I had on hand, not clever ones with a hole in so I can put them on a ring, but it's a start! And while I was sorting my floss I also found many many WIP's (some really nice ones too!), about ten needles, all the parts of my two Q-snap frames and three embroidery scissors. :)

Surely I deserve to wear this pin now?
