Basic supply

This is a picture of my cross stitch box. I tend not to follow the suggested colours for a pattern unless it comes in a kit with the floss included. To make this kit I bought one of those mega pack floss bags that tend to come with like fifty colours then just bought singular colours from there depending on what I needed, like dark blues for the fantastic four and the right purple for Hulk's pants. I also like to have my floss on plastic bobbins and I always get gold plated needles, the gold tends to rub off after a while but they're still good quality needles. Also stock a lot of black and white I find they're used a lot.
