The pairs stay matched up, and I can see them all when they are hanging by the large hold on the wooden thread holder. (The type from JoAnns like you use on one of your other projects to hold your thread.)npsmithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13386207853277525985noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-444221130150558371.post-56364028151008686712009-09-20T23:31:04.344-04:002009-09-20T23:31:04.344-04:00You've done it again.

These could be used to keep fabrics separated for projects as well - pencil erases quite easily from these little plastic tabs. Keep the ideas coming - love all of them.

I'm addicted to quilting, but must admit I knit wool socks for my husband for time to time - I like to spoil him - and keeping track of the rows is always a pain. I've tried lots of methods, but this could be just the thing. Regards Sam (Sandra)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
