Organize Your Floss Like a Pro with These DMC Numbered Bobbins!
If you're tired of digging through piles of floss to find the right color, I highly recommend checking out these awesome floss bobbins I found on Etsy! My wife recently bought a set, and they’re a total game changer for keeping embroidery threads neat and easy to access.
What’s great about these bobbins is that each one has the DMC number printed right on it, so you can instantly identify your colors without the hassle of labels or mismatched threads.
Perfect for anyone who loves cross-stitching, embroidery, or any other floss-based craft. The quality is fantastic, and they’ve made organizing so much easier!

Happy stitching! 🎨✨
Hi! I’m obsessed with the Hachette Peter Rabbit cross stitch subscription but it’s only available in the UK. I had a friends help get the first 26 copies but it was really complicated because he doesn’t live in the UK full time. I’m looking for some help to forward magazines to the US. Anyone able to help?
Starting this off with: I have ZERO sewing skills whatsoever, don’t even know how to fix a lil hole in something lol (I was never taught by my mum and never had a reason to learn myself).
I cosplay here and there, and I really want to at least get into the basics and sew simple things from scratch (skirts and dresses mostly as my cosplays are very feminine but different styles of shirts would be nice too), I never do anything too detailed for my cosplays, it’s usually just a thrown together closetcos of some sort.
What can help me learn? Any good YouTube channels? Things I can read? Just wanting general useful tips and resources for wanting to learn

Hi -
We just inherited two pieces of stitchery / needlework from a dear friend. They have huge sentimental value.
They are 40-50 years old. They have not been cleaned or dusted in a very long time.
I'm looking for advice on how to get the dust off of them without damaging the very fragile bits. So far I've tried a vacuum with a soft brush and that's been somewhat successful. I'm afraid if I go any harder or closer with the vacuum that I will cause damage.
I'd be grateful for any suggestions.
Hello! I hope that this finds you well. I am looking for the Crosstitcher magazine for some new patterns to make. The Michaels near me does not carry it. Anyone spot one in the wild?
Silk shading/needle painting embroidery. Worked in DMC, so beginners can easily find the threads for the pattern.
