I have just bought some thread from another source. Most of the time I have stuck to the same thread company, but now I am wondering how you identify the thread in your bobbins. I have so many bobbins and they are full, but have no idea the number of the

I have been doing some FSL and using just the one layer with success, but now it has me thinking - for those who use only the one layer please tell me what do you do with the bits left over?? I usually use the base layer and then use the bits as a second

This is more for the Cuties in Australia. Where do you buy your WWS from and what weight do you buy. How many layers do you use when doing FSL? I bought some really nice WWS ages ago but can't remember where.

A few weeks before Christmas (could even be a couple of months) I thought I found a Lions head looking to the right. Thought I had saved it as it would look great on my steering wheel covers, but can't remember where it was or that I have even saved it.
