DMC Floss Storage Cards

Hey Stitchers!

Here are the files I have been promising....

I have 4 files to share with you today.  My original DMC snack-size baggie color file has been revised to include the 16 colors added in 2013, so now it is all in one file instead of two.  I also created a version with the color swatches removed, for anyone who either cannot or doesn't want to print in color.  Then, this week, Stitching Mae asked for the cards to use with her Floss-a-way bags.  So I modified the spacing for the smaller cards, and created color and b&w versions.

DMC Floss Storage Cards - for snack-sized baggies - color - as of 2015

DMC Floss Storage Cards - for snack-sized baggies - b&w - as of 2015

DMC Floss Storage Cards - for floss-a-way size baggies - color - as of 2015

DMC Floss Storage Cards - for floss-a-way size baggies - b&w - as of 2015

As with all created and shared things, you are more than welcome to use for your personal use.  I am happy to share these with all stitchers to help you enjoy your hobby more.  Please, no selling of my works and ideas.  Thank you!

And for those who have found their way here someway other than linked via my Flosstube videos,  and would like to see them, here they are:

Happy Stitching!

  1. I'd love to be able to access your files for the DMC labels. Can you please grant me access? Thanks!

    I'm another left-handed stitcher.

    1. Hi Rita, you should be able to access now. When I working on getting it all setup late last night, I forgot to change share permissions on the files. An ooops, but easy to fix once I became aware of it.

  2. Hi Tricia I was wondering how you format the cards to fit into the Baggies um I was wondering if you use regular printer paper and then measure it out and then cut it or if you use some sort of special paper specifically for it and it's already pre measured and then you just cut it to fit?

    1. I use a function in MS Word to create the size of the space for the card. Files are printed onto white cardstock paper, then cut by hand (or using scrapbooking paper trimmer which is much easier). Check out the links to the videos (if you haven't already) as they should answer most of your questions. If they don't, feel free to ask.
