I don't know about anyone else, but as a beginner cross stitcher (I've been doing it a while but I haven't gotten up the nerve to attempt any really complicated projects like HAED or a large kit from Dimensions), I work with small kits quite often. I ran into a little problem once where I nearly ran out of thread to use in the kit!
Ever since I find that I am pretty hoarder about my thread. I HATE to waste even an inch of it if I think I could get just ONE more stitch out of it! I'm just curious if anyone else behaves this way, or if you don't, how do you save on thread and/or make sure you have enough?
For example - I missed a stitch in a pattern I'm working on and rather than cut a new length from the kit and waste a ton of thread I filled it in with an adjacent color. But that is annoying to me almost as much as wasting the thread! I would really appreciate any tips or tricks to save thread or just hear about what kind of neuroses anyone has about their projects.
Thanks! :P
