Remember I mentioned I'd sorted and updated my spreadsheet with the tatting books on?
Well I then decided to make a list of threads I've got with quantities, numbers etc. I started in on the number 20's. I've listed those under 'make, colour, shade, number and name (if they had one) with a rough note of how much was on a ball. By that I mean 'full, half full, quarter full'.
It took me ages to do and I was surprised at how I'd managed to get a few repeats over the years. I have enough orange/rust to last me and my descendants about 200 years!!!!
Having done the 20's I moved on to do the 40's. That's all I'm going to do - too much like hard work!!!
The main reason for doing this is so that when I get to Palmetto I'll know what I've got back at home - watch out vending room here I come!!
I've also managed to add another doodle page - the giraffe and a new tree. I've 'titivated' the giraffe and the tree can have a longer trunk if required.

Very organised! I love the giraffe and tree.
ReplyDeleteYou put me to shame being so organised!
ReplyDeleteAs you know I am due to make about 300 of these giraffes for a wedding, hope they look as good as this one.
What a cute pair of doodles indeed!
ReplyDeleteCute giraffe and tree. You put me to shame being so organized, even if it's only part of your thread stash :-)
ReplyDeleteCute!! :)
ReplyDeleteOooh Ooooh I love them both!
ReplyDeleteThe term I've heard is "SABLE" (Stash Acquisition Beyond Life Expectancy)
ReplyDeleteOh, Mary Jo, I'm delighted to have a name for my 'problem'. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteGood luck with the 300 giraffes, Sally!!!! Thanks everybody else - more doodles tomorrow!!!
Fun! I really like the tree! But, then the giraffe is super cute too!
