I would sort the floss, then reward yourself with a hour or 2 stitching, then unpick followed by stitching as a reward :)
I need to wind bobbins :roll:

Hmmm not a bad idea, I hate unpicking it seems such a waste of my time but then again it teaches me to concentrate more :wip:

How about working on the hardest first (the unpicking), then work on the most fun (stitching), and leave the sorting of floss to next weekend?

I'd probably do the most dreaded first, the unpicking, then reward myself with stitching and do the labeling another day.

I'm thinking you really want to finish that bagpuss since 50% of your options have that in mind :wink:
