    @MrJameGumb Bobbins, floss caddies, all fabric in a computer bag, most tools in floss box with one section always open for ORTS (cleaned out following each project). Also have some “Stitch Folios” to keep hoops, larger fabric scissors, some craft baggies and a few other things in like pin backs, D-rings and split rings (for key chain fobs), etc. Extra skeins are in a gallon sized ziplock in the same computer bag as the fabric. I use the Thread Stash app to help keep track of embroidery floss.

      Right now I’m working on getting all my floss for upcoming projects onto bobbins and in the floss box! I started using a cordless drill that makes winding the bobbins much faster now lol

        @MrJameGumb I still do all mine by hand. 🙂 I have a bit of OCD, especially when it comes to organizing cross stitch & other creative supplies. But I’m also a little strange to most people because I actually enjoy winding bobbins almost as much as I enjoy stitching. I think I was just wired to love textiles, art, crafts–anything creative altogether, whether it has to do with the supplies to make pretty things, organizing them, designing a new project, kitting it up–whatever. I just love it all!

          I actually kind of enjoy winding them by hand too! I just have so many that I’m behind on that I needed to speed through some of the backlog lol
