Oh my....oh my.....I just went floss crazy...last night I serperated the 2 brands of floss I had and decided I would only use DMC floss...turns out I had more of the other brand then I did DMC...well, after work I went over to AC Moore...and bought 135 different colors of floss...came out to about $45....nowwww I have to get them all on the plastic bobbins....I only have about 50-100 more colors to buy and I think I'll have them all!

What I did notice though, is the store had quite a few lower numbered flosses that arn't on ANY DMC list...and the DMC site hasn't updated their list in like 10 years...what's up with that???
