Sometimes when I am working on a stitch guide I look at the 30-40 different items I've used and think I have gone a bit overboard. Turns out I am a serious beginner when it comes to using a lot of different threads! Mary Corbet is about to start a project that uses 200 different flosses. Yep, I'm a rank amateur!

The way she plans to organize her threads looks very logical, although expensive. But if you do a lot of this kind of thing, you'll definitely want to look into Annie's Keepers.

By the way, Traditional Stitches is a great online shop if you are Canadian and Nordic Needle is amazing if you are in the United States.
