Cross stitchers use lots and lots of different colors in many of their pieces, so floss organization is always an issue for them. A lot of people use what are called floss sticks or floss organizers. Like these which are the length of office folders and meant to hang in a desk drawer on hanging file bars until needed.

These are the drawer frames. They come in two sizes, letter sized and legal sized. Of course you don't have to use the floss organizer bars this way.

Herrschners sells a shorter variety with a magnet for your needles. The folks at Needlepoint Nation say that these have 20 holes, not 22 as the blurb says.
