Action Bag FL100 Floss-A-Way Organizer-3X5 100/Pkg

I like these bags but beware they only have one hole for the ring. I’ve gotten other bags with two holes, makes it much easier to keep The bags in order. Still like these better than plastic thread bobbins though.

Not my first time purchasing (my 3rd or 4th?) and they never disappoint! So handy to store DMC Floss and other stitching needs. Easy to see what you have and no need to transfer to spindles (which can fall all over!). I keep all floss I’m currently using, on their own rings, and the remainder on a global ring. There is a place on the bag to write the code and when on a ring, it’s very easy to find the floss you need. On individual projects, I can organize the bags by number or color order as listed in the instructions. Then put them on their own ring. I often have beads and other embellishments and keep them in their own bags (store beads in their original packaging, then in the bag!!) If you have a kit that comes with it’s own (un-numbered) floss and want to keep the extra, it’s very easy to find a DMC match by comparing through the bags. No match? Put it in its own bag and put it in the similar color section. (You can store the floss from kits by the same-manufacturer, on their own ring, if you wish. You never know when you might need more!). Another thing I recommend purchasing are the individual, hard plastic floss holders shaped like an animal. They hold about 20? colors of floss. So if you have a kit, organize each color of floss into a bag and put them in order on a ring. (If it comes all in a single length, cut off about 18 inches of floss and put the rest in its bag.) Then take what you have cut and slip-knot it on the animal organizer. So easy to organize and easy to carry around. Great product!

Im actually not using these for floss - Im using them to store swatch sample of my favorite knitting/crocheting yarns. The prepunched hole allows me to put them on a ring so they wont get lost. They also have a small white area where you can write information about the contents. I can see a use for them to store scrapbook decorations, sewing notions, or beads.

I buy floss away bags for my DMC floss. It makes keeping the floss in numerical order very easy. The bags zip and unzip easily. its made keeping the floss organized a breeze. The is a little ring hole on them , so when using them you can keep the baggies on a ring, helping to keep things organized even as you are working on your project. Ive been getting these for years and will continue to do so.

Seriously. I tried to leave and just use snack bags but they are so inferior to FlossA Way I came running back! NO, the other ones that have 2 holes in the bottom arent just as good and if you are persnickety, you want THESE BAGS. They hold a lot of embroidery thread and also are quite convenient for those single and short strands you have leftover at the end of a project.

Not as good as my older floss-a-way bags, which had a red stripe reinforcing the closure and hold punch to prevent break through in the ring. Older ones were made of slightly thicker plastic too. Still love these bags. Perfect size for up to 6 skeins of embroidery floss and easy to tuck away leftover cuts to use on that line leftover cross stitch. Cheaper than some smaller sized “pill bags” with write on area that I found at Walgreens (Use for when I just have a single cut left over).

I love the convenience of having these bags on a ring so my thread is organized. The only thing I didnt like is the thinness of the plastic. I think if it were double thickness that it would last a lot longer.

These bags are a wonderful addition to any embroidery kit. They’re small enough to hold a few loose threads and large enough to hold three or four skeins of floss. Pros: Easy to use, convenient place to store thread. Capable of holding more than one skein or bobbin at a time. Holes at the bottom for holding bags together, using the enclosed ring. Cons: The bags can be a little slippery, and the “easy write” surface for numbers often smears over time or in humid environments. The holes in the bottom sometimes allow things to slip through.

Best way to store my DNC’s floss ... Some of my flosses are over 30 yrs old they are still perfect like I bought them yesterday

Love these bags. I use them to store my floss as I work on my cross stitch projects.
