Thank you Morgan. I am a beginner and am waiting for delivery of that specific floss drop. You have just saved me hours of struggle trying to figure all that out.

[@janicebest-nesbitt6455]

Awesome job. Thank You for the video. Really helpful. Keep them coming.

[@justmorganstitching]

Thank you so much!

[@nancycrouch9190]

I just found this. You explained the floss drops perfectly. Thank you

[@evelynflavin5812]

Congratulations on a great first floss tube! Your demonstration was so well done. I use floss drops but hadn't seen this type. I love the idea of slipping the label on rather than writing the number. Planning to order some to try. Thank you for this video and good luck with future ones. You are off to a great start.

[@justmorganstitching]

Thank you so much!

[@judiemarshall7812]

Great job. Lots of information. Keep up the great work.

[@sirwillll]

The braid is a very good idea! Thank you!

[@nebularblue]

thanks for that detailed video! it's very nice beginner-friendly. I was looking for videos of flossdrops in action so your video was just perfect!

[@justmorganstitching]

I'm so glad you found it useful! Thank you for your kind comment!

[@rochelledalton509]

Thank you for showing a great way to use floss and storing it! I also use floss drops but yours are better. I’m going to switch!

[@justmorganstitching]

I am so glad you found it helpful!

[@kristinemorgan6793]

Very nice video. Straight to the point and good information. Thanks!

[@justmorganstitching]

Thank you!

[@CBranumMLT]

Girl you just blew my mind pulling one strand out of that braid! I'll admit I probably won't start taking the time to braid my floss but that was cool. Welcome to flosstube!

[@lindaprice9242]

I just watched your first video. Thank you so much for the tutorial. You explain things so well and I like how you do close-ups of your work they are so clear thank you thank you

[@justmorganstitching]

Thank you!

[@kathleensharin9947]

I love simplicity. I put my floss in a small ziploc bag with the number on the bag. There is ad box made especially for these bags with two sections and I just file them in order. Done

[@colleenl4101]

Bravo! Great first floss tube video. I like the floss drops. The option to add the label so easily is what sold me.

[@justmorganstitching]

Thank you!

[@patmarchbanks8230]

I enjoyed your first floss tube

[@vonetteperkins5771]

Love your video. Glad to see someone that uses supplies that is generally available without special ordering. And glad to hear you are an Ag teacher. Keep it up

[@thoughtsofawindowgirl2112]

Great job Morgan

[@nomansvan827]

Nice job thank you

[@justmorganstitching]

Thank you!

[@nmladyg]

Loved your first video..It was very informative. I also bought some of these floss drops and wanted to try them. I really like them.

[@coolyou-td8zn]

This is such a brilliant way to use the floss drop and may I ask what is the thing that you used to tie the end of your braided floss? Thank you !

[@barbaralajoie1825]

Great video Morgan. What a unique idea to braid the floss drops. And beautiful job explaining how to use the acrylic floss drops. Looking forward to future videos!

[@leslies6008]

Really well done, Morgan! Thank you for sharing that.

[@phyllisdaum1213]

I use those floss drops also. They are terrific!

[@phyllisdaum1213]

The braid is brilliant! I have never done that but I certainly will be from now on.

[@lindadulin174]

It is a great idea!

[@justmorganstitching]

I really am enjoying them! Thank you for your kind words!

[@brendaweis9496]

I love your first video!! Always looking for new organization ideas. Kim and Jade from Small Town needleworks recommended you. recommended your video

[@lindadulin174]

Morgan, this was an excellent video! I love the way you braid your floss! I am sure that it makes it much easier to put it in the little floss storage book. I do have a lot of floss, so the little baggie method would not work for ne. However, I use my well washed butter plastic container ers to hold my floss by groups of numbers in each container. I write the floss range on the top with black magic marker. God luck on your flosstubes! MAY GOD BLESS YOU AND YOURS.

[@justmorganstitching]

Thank you for your kind words! God bless ❤️

[@CathyRatliffatcathyscorner]

Congrats on your first video!!! Keep on going! You are doing great!!

[@jan3451]

Congrats on your first flosstube! Nicely done! I REALLY like how you’ve seriously taken into consideration just how much space you realistically have for storage of hobby materials in your home. You are a wonderful example of how one can enjoy a hobby without having supplies take over living spaces. Purchasing just what you need for a project and keeping the number of projects to a bare minimum is wise. I had to chuckle when you showed your acrylic floss drops. I discovered those a few months ago and thought them brilliant. Had I not already switched my entire inventory of threads to Annie’s Keepers (which are somewhat similar) I would have considered them for storage. Keep filming…I throughly enjoy your style!

[@justmorganstitching]

Thank you so much!

[@sherrymilen4172]

Very good video Morgan! Thank you!

[@Stfaster0313]

Great video! Great ideas!

[@solarwinds-]

Hi Morgan, Can you make a video that shows a good way to organize the floss drops where the colors are easy to find I like the advantages of the drop floss and I want to switch but I have over 400 to 500 DMC colors at the ready. To store the floss drops on a ring is too project specific. I need the system to be able to adapt to any WIP I have in front of me and be able to easily select any color.

[@stefaniestaniak4329]

Great tutorial, thank you. I love those floss drops, great idea to use the tag to label the floss. Thanks for the video.

[@kathyhaymaker840]

Very good video!! I love the floss drops!!! I have all the dmc floss but this looks like a good way to store them!! God bless!!

[@justmorganstitching]

Thank you! God bless ❤️

[@erniejofo]

Nice video. I also braid floss on floss drops that I make myself but I braid very loosely and leaves the ends alone. Cheers on your channel. I'll be back.

[@teresapires5799]

Hi Morgan. Congratulations on your first floss tube video. I was super excited to see that you use these floss drops as I've been interested in them but haven't purchased them yet. I will be getting them now. I love the idea of braiding the floss and will be giving that a try also. I prep my floss the same but I start with the other end and leave the numbered label in place and hold that in my hand while finding the other end and it doesn't knot on me just fyi if you want to try it. Good luck with your channel and looking forward to future videos. Happy stitching.

[@clarewilkinson7887]

Awesome video!!! The DMC floss drops are a great idea. Can you tell me where you got the little binder? Hope you make more videos!!!

[@justmorganstitching]

I got the binder from Hobby Lobby, but most craft stores sell a version of them! This particular one doesn't hold a lot of floss, but is perfect for smaller stashes. I will share the link. www.hobbylobby.com/Yarn-Needle-Art/Cross-Stitch/Floss-Thread/Floss-Organizer-Binder/p/80891252

[@clarewilkinson7887]

@@justmorganstitching Thank you.

[@sandyranegar4036]

Hello! Can you tell me where you got the binder? Thanks!

[@juanitadrexel339]

Those floss drops are really nice. But my question is how do you keep your floss clean. I have every color that DMC makes and I have them stored in little rectangular baggies. With the number on a little label in the top left corner. So they stay clean and untangled. When I’m using one if the colors, I put it into a snack size baggie and put a hole in the top left of the bag, put them on a ring also in numerical order and go stitch. Years ago at a garage sale I came across a square wooden box with a clasp lid and it was perfect for my floss baggies. My husband took some thin plastic and made dividers so they would stay in little cubes and not flop all over the place. I would not want my floss exposed to the light as that will make it fade. So how do you store yours.

[@justmorganstitching]

I use the zip baggies as well! I purposefully do not keep much floss. I only buy the colors when a pattern calls for them, so I do not have much to store. I use a small binder for my baggies.

[@pilipalacrafts]

I can't seem to find your binder in the UK, do you have any idea where I might be able to find one? Does it have a specific name?

[@justmorganstitching]

Mine is just a generic brand, but Floss-A-Way and Sullivans offer the binders as well. Best of luck!

[@dianemoberg5294]

How many come in a package? So interested in these. Thanks for the info.

[@justmorganstitching]

You can buy them in many different quantities. I believe the standard offerings are 5-100!

[@juliegerig6868]

Would you be able to give the name of the double ring floss storage? I am not finding that style at my craft store. Thanks so much as I am certain this is the answer for my DMC floss!

[@justmorganstitching]

I found it at Hobby Lobby, I am posting the link below! www.hobbylobby.com/Yarn-Needle-Art/Cross-Stitch/Floss-Thread/Floss-Organizer-Binder/p/80891252

[@juliegerig6868]

@@justmorganstitching Thanks soo much!! I found them at Hobby Lobby in our nearby town. I also am anxiously awaiting the floss drops. This is such a great way to store DMC for sure!

[@mm-qm9zh]

Question, please…is it possible to pull just one strand of floss from the braid instead of pulling all six strands at one time? 🙂 Thanks so much!

[@justmorganstitching]

Like Angie said, you definitely can pull just one strand!
