I lamented in a recent Flosstube video that I have too many cross stitch projects using the same color of Sulky 12 weight cotton petites thread. My favorite color to stitch with has been the Sulky Milk Chocolate Blendables color. With Halloween and winter stitching, I cannot seem to keep track of the spools. A fantastic viewer offered a great solution to my one spool dilemma.
This viewer suggested that I put some of the Sulky Petites on small bobbins. What a great idea! I immediately went and ordered abobbin set with a carrying case. I like the idea of being able to carry a portable sulky thread palette in a project bag or for a purse project.
Using my sewing machine, I quickly loaded a single bobbin with the Sulky thread. I am so happy. Now I can add this small bobbin to one project. I just have to label the color. I heard about the bobbin holders that are super fun and brightly colored. I thought I could use them and attach my thread number to each one.
I am so happy with the results. Sulky is super affordable as a cross stitching floss, and now I can make each spool into small bobbins for multiple projects. Yippee!
