Found this on YouTube in relation to project prep & organization & thought I'd share. I already have my own way I prep & organize for projects, but I still thought it was amazing & that someone else may want to see if it works for them. The video also shows some clips of how they organize floss into binders, though not how they do that part, and I thought that was pretty ingenious too. https://youtu.be/tmj7ELFcqHc?si=pqWIslhs2bd9Ybog
@breadsmasher I love how #atheists love 2 attack my #faith & the faith of others. #PrayerCloths aren't the ONLY answer 2 #healing, but they DO help those with faith. The #Bible itself doesn't say 2 rely on them alone; it talks about Paul (a man of faith) & Luke (a doctor with faith) working together 2 heal the sick. #God tailors each person's healing 2 their level of faith. If you choose 2 only trust doctors, that's your choice. But I pity you for the disadvantage that puts you in. #GodBless

Took 5 1/2 to 6 hours of #CrossQuilting, but it's finished! #PatrioticWithLadybug #PrayerCloth has #CrossStitch on the front panel and is #CrossQuilted to make the project double-sided.
@Hobbes_Dent Sorry about that. I've copied the link from my YouTube and going to try to add it to my post in case there's any more problems with it.
That link is here:

Mastodon gave me problems uploading, or it may have been my internet connection at the time, not sure. I hope the YouTube posting works, at least. 🙂

@KittenBiscuits @LaunchesKayaks I use my compression gloves all the time while stitching. They help reduce fatigue and swelling...and they make my hands look fancier while I'm working! 😉

Progress on 2 copies of #PraiseHim #PrayerCloth. #CrossStitch portion is finished. #CrossQuilting outlines now. Pics are of the front and back panels.

Haven't posted progress pics in a while, so I thought I'd share. This is two copies of #PraiseHim #PrayerCloth. Proofing the pattern as I go, since I was an idiot & allowed excitement to override common sense prior to posting it on Ko-Fi.
For the (currently) unproofed pattern posted to Ko-Fi, the #Free #DigitalOnly version is here: https://ko-fi.com/s/3ce465a10a

@Fermion Yes. A #TrolleyNeedle is a type of #LayingTool, though the manufacturer says it can be used for other purposes too. In #CrossStitch, a laying tool is used to make sure stitches lay flat. I use mine to help me catch knots starting to form as I'm #Railroading stitches so the don't get unmanageable. I also feel that they look much nicer combining the Railroading with the use of the trolley needle.
@lemmy\_stitch @crossstitch @fiberarts @fibrearts
This is how I use a #TrolleyNeedle as a #LayingTool while #Railroading in #CrossStitch . I apologize I couldn't do a longer video than about two stitches--it told me my video was too large to upload otherwise.

@lemmy\_stitch @crossstitch Everyone who creates forgets certain details about their creations from time 2 time. Most creators in today's time don't initial &/or date their work, etc. These cards are the size of business cards & can be filled out so precious information won't be lost.

@WarmSoda I found it on Facebook quite a while ago. It made me laugh, so I saved it and just found it again, so I just had to share some giggles. 😄
@catsdoingcatstuff @MrJameGumb Especially while winding Bobbins so the can get tangled up in a free end...
@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!
@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.
