Printable Floss Bobbins from Wild Olive

We had a little discussion last week when I mentioned Annette’s floss tags and some folks wanted to make bobbins instead. I appreciate that and I wanted to share one of my favorite sources for printing out bobbins on your own card stock at home.

Want a quick way to make your own floss tags for projects and stash storage?

I’ve got a few big projects coming up in my to-stitch pile and I was thinking of making some floss tags like this to help keep me from making a mess. I used a floss box last time I did a big project (think HAED) but I didn’t like the whole winding and unwinding of bobbins.

So the idea of using tags really appealed to me since this is already how I store my specialty threads. I have two big binder style rings that I keep over-dyed and extra special threads on.

Annette posted a quick tutorial on her blog (Annette’s Acre) about how she made her own floss tags since they weren’t readily available for her to purchase. It’s a quick and easy solution using some card stock and hole punches that I’m sure you’ll like.
