I saw that. Just out of curiosity, does that come with a kit or do you have to buy the floss, the canvass and everything else? I have trouble getting everything together and have only worked from kits. I finally went out and bought some more needles because when I tried to work on the project that I started in China, I found that the needle was missing so I couldn't work on it. It was a day that my battery charger on the computer was not working so I couldn't do anything on the computer so I went to get that fixed when I went to get the needles and when I got to best buy the charger worked fine so I still haven't opened the needles yet. AAARRRGGGHHH!!!

I had to go buy 6 new packages of needles. I set up my color of floss for each needle. I have so many color changes on this piece I am doing to change the color out of one needle will take me forever to get this project done!

Does that mean that you just have every color on a needle already? I never had more than one or maybe two needles that came with the kits that I worked on and those always disappeared. This is the first time that I had ever bought needles and I am hoping that I don't lose them all once I open them. I hate having to change colors because it takes so long to thread the needles for me. I just hope that these are easier to thread than the Chinese needles were.

I went and got a foam board (like poster board but thicker)
Then I cut it in 4 pieces. I put every symbol of the chart on this board and then take the colors and put my floss on each needle that way I don't have to change floss every time in a needle.
And when you are finished with the project you have your needles and can use them for your next project using the foam board. It has really made my cross stitching faster and easier.
Hope you are feeling better!
