    actually, if you're an organized person - it doesn't take that much time. start-up would be the most time consuming. after that - you just add-on to what you have. i have my embroidery thread (i know - it's nothing like her stash) organized & in boxes by number. i put them in the computer and can sort them by number or color. it's really neat when you're looking for a specific color.

    Oh my! I love it, wish mine looked that good. I have mine in big tubs right now, but I don't like it, so I may have to reconsider! It is easier to sew when I can find what I am looking for easily.
