Todays video is introducing a new hashtag with the purpose of creating a stronger community connection between stitchers. Introducing: #astitchers12daysofchristmas

For Christmas in July we will be introducing this hashtag on July 08 with 12 prompts where stitchers can share favourite Christmas cross stitch patterns. Today I am sharing the 12 prompts and my 12 selections.

Starting July 08th (allowing time for everyone to complete their patriotic stitching) there will be a prompt released on Instagram every second day (via @fibersandfloss). You will be able to screen shot the prompt graphic and share it along with your favourite pattern suggestion. Please be sure to use #astitchers12daysofchristmas in your post. (This winter we will be using this hashtag for a free virtual advent calendar among other activities to strengthen our community connection.

*ATTN FLOSSTUBERS* If you are interested in participating and would like all the graphics sent to you now for the purpose of filming, please message me and i will send them over to you.
