Ready to start posting Flosstube tags

Well, I have tracked down all the tags I could manage to find.  A few took some digging, as a couple of the original tag videos were deleted, and a couple original tag videos did not have their questions written out.

 So, I will start posting them.  There are currently 25 tags, here is the list:





If I am missing any current tags, or if you post a new tag in the future and I haven't caught it and added it in a timely manner, or there are any errors in my documents, please let me know.  You can comment to this blog post or comment to the Flosstube video linked here:

As always... Happy Stitching!

Flosstube Tags

Recently, there has been quite the explosion of videos replying to Flosstube Tags.  Makes for hours and hours of Flosstube videos to be watched/listened to while stitching.  One wonderful Flosstuber, Heather Stitches, has put together a playlist of original tag videos to reference.  It is a really good idea and very useful to all of Flosstube.  I took a look at her playlist the other day to take stock of the tags I want to work on.  I noticed that at the top of the list, there was a deleted video.  Once a video is deleted, there is no way to really tell what it used to be.  This has happened to two original tag videos so far.  So, I got the idea to document all the tags on my blog, making it easy for Flosstubers to acquire the questions, and to safeguard against deleted original tag videos.  I am almost done compiling all the current tags and their questions.  Soon I will post them on this blog.  Then as I come across new tags, I will add them.

Happy Stitching!
