I was wondering about the floss also. I hope someone replies. :D

:) I have found using the little sample bars of soap from motels and hotels work wonders for thread and needles. works just as good for me as wax or thread heaven and a lot cheaper.

remember that thread should be used on needle in the same direction as the spool. This will help in less knotting. There is a grain to thread,( if thats the correct term, ) you dont want to go against it.

also, knot the end that comes off the spool helps to keep it from knotting. Never heard if using the dryer sheet. Would that be a new one or a used one? Thanks for the tip. Annie Mae

Thanks for the fabric softener tip. I haven't heard of it but believe I will try it.!!

Its a new one on me.

I learned this just recently here on the board. So I know I'm doing it right, I thread my needle before I cut it from the spool so I know I'm knotting the right end. I use beeswax too but it's not always fool-proof.
