I have been doing that for a long time. I just get a box of sheets at the dollar store and cut them...

Now that's a very good idea, I shall have to give that a try, does it not damage your thread, like rotting it after many years.

I'm going to give this a try, thanks.

I have this product that I bought in a blue box but there knew the purpose of conditioning the floss. I wll try and do that as I find I often get knots in my floss because of twisting.
Hope that helps.

I use 'Thread Heaven' which is a preparatory brand - much more expensive than the ideas given, when this pot runs out I will definitely give them a try!

I hate to put anything on my thread, I don't know if it will cause the work to deteriorate over time

I haven't ever used thread conditioner, may have to try it out sometime
