Today I did the back stitching and beading on the Just Nan Sun Blossoms Tree. I love the bright colors and today's sun shine helped to improve the day. This is a fussy project but the colors are so worth it.
Next up is Sweetheart's Tree Halloween Quadrille. The finishing for this one is fascinating to me. I know that sounds crazy. LOL. But I do enjoy the finishing part.
I was asked about floss organization. I use the Stitch Box system for my DMC. I have snack bags for overdyed floss. I use a floss tote to organize any project. It all works. This project I have floss in the kit. So I sorted it, put it in the tote and then marked the symbols for each color. My stitch bows also fit in the tote. It works out rather well.

I still haven't come up with a good system for all my overdyes, and hate when kits come with thread that only winds up in a tangled ball. Love sunshine tree though, such wonderful colors on it.
Wow! I can't believe you've already finished this one!
Love the Sun Blossoms with all the fiddly colour changes you completed it really quickly.
Any idea's yet for finishing it would make a lovely picture to put all four of them together when the other two are released.
I use floss bags for all my threads and have the different projects I work on in little clear boxes with a photocopy of the picture on the top. I always have a couple of projects on the go.
Looking forward to seeing the progress on your new one.
It's beautiful, Taffy.
