  • FlossTube #106 - Being an Introvert with Extroverted Kids is Hard

    A huge drop in the number of works-in-progress compared to last FlossTube, but I've made so much progress, though! Which you can't be upset aboutโ€ฆ right? ๐Ÿ˜…

    I didn't really plan long term on releasing multiple cross-stitch patterns last week, but I'm glad I made it work and managed to get them both out on time. I am genuinely curious on what you think about the pattern I was a little mysterious about last fortnight. I'm a fan of the colours, the simplicity of the design and surprised at how much I enjoyed working on it..! So let me know what you think in the comments below.

    Some other things I asked for your feedback on:

    • What are some monochrome patterns (or designers who have done many monochrome patterns) that you know of and suggest I check out?
    • Should I enter the Washington State Fair this year? If so, what should I enter? You've seen what I have available!
    • Thoughts on my latest finished Stitch People portrait..?
    • Do you have a strong opinion on the latest "Extraordinary Birds" feature release?
    • Did my 'surprise' cross-stitch pattern "get" you? ๐Ÿ˜‚

    No new updates to my website (aside from the new patterns) so don't come at me for forgetting about something like that! Half of my fortnight was spent keeping my head above water!

  • FlossTube #105 - What Could The Mystery Pattern Be..?

    As of the 17th, my FlossTube series is 4-years-old! I started way back in 2021, not really knowing what to expect from my videos. I don't think I follow the regular FlossTube kind of 'vibe' that you might otherwise see, but these videos have helped me be more mindful of what I've gotten up to and give me some time & space to process how things have gone.

    If you've enjoyed my FlossTube videos, firstly; thank you for watching! And secondly, let me know in the comments what you enjoy getting out of a FlossTube episode โ€” whether it's from my own series or other FlossTubers you've watched. I'd love to know!

    This episode had a whopping seven works-in-progress to share (one that I'm shrouding in mystery ๐Ÿ˜‰). I also got the nice surprise in the "final" hour when I realised I actually didn't want to release my next cross-stitch pattern; "Zodiac: Leo", last week, as it was still Cancer-season. Now I get to have the feeling of being on top of things for once!
    Wonder how long that'll last for..? ๐Ÿ’ญ

    Some questions I asked for your feedback on:

    • Am I strange to add stitch-along releases into my regular calendar?
    • Have you watched "K-Pop Demon Hunters" on Netflix, too? Are you also obsessed?
    • What do you think will come of the 'mystery' cross-stitch piece I'm working on?
    • Will you be participating in either of the upcoming stitch-alongs I mention, too?

  • FlossTube #104 - Birthday Gifts Galore; I'm So Lucky ๐Ÿงก

    I'm officially wrapping up my 30s now, I guess..!

    In this fortnight's episode, I touch on a number of different things. I even made notes on what questions I wanted to ask you guys - go me!

    Some questions I asked for your feedback on:

    • Should I enter my recent finished piece to the Washington State Fair?
    • What are/were your thoughts on the "FlossTube Celebration" kit/piece? ๐Ÿ—ˆ
    • Will you do the Twigs & Tea stitch-along too?
    • What WIP should I pick back up from the ones shown?
    • ...and more!

    ๐Ÿ—ˆ The "FlossTube Celebration" kit had some hiccups, growing pains, etc. with it, so I'm really curious about what you thought about the whole thing โ€” whether you purchased a kit or not. I did get some helpful (albeit difficult to read objectively) piece of feedback already, but I would love for more info points!
    The reason being; I was thinking I might continue doing something similar to this in the future! But if there isn't any(/very little) interest in it, then I will spend my efforts elsewhere. Yanno?

    I love being able to see the progress made on things like my works-in-progress between each FlossTube episode. I didn't get as much stitching done as I 'normally' would, because of summer break, but it is probably more than I would've realised without being able to compare fortnight-to-fortnight. I hope you enjoy seeing the progression, too!

  • FlossTube #103 - A Well Rounded Episode With Many a-Tangent.

    Well, there were a number of tangents today, I guess. But we got there in the end!

    More work on the same set of works-in-progress, some 'haul' that I've gotten over the past month or so and even a finished piece that I forgot to share in the last FlossTube episode. I also completed my May 2025 wrap-up post just before recording this episode, which is always a good feeling! Plus some other blog posts were published that I'm also pleased about.

    What else did I cover in this episode?

    • Other stitchy ventures both current and future,
    • A brief look at IRL shenanigans,
    • Many tangents โ€” (oops),
    • ...and other bits & pieces!

    Let me know what your thoughts are about my Zodiac series now that all the 4 "main" colours are out, what your suggestions are on where/who to learn knitting and if you think me creating either a book of a series of patterns or a box set of flash cards would be a good idea!

  • FlossTube #102 - Sometimes We Learn The Hard Way.

    A belated FlossTube episode (Sorry about that!) with lots to share!

    I have five works-in-progress to share, five new blog posts to share and [I think?] five big pieces of news from IRL to share! Plus, watch to the end to see a special visitor to send me off for the video ๐Ÿงก

    Let me know what you think about my current social media flow and what you think of the "No Spend June" Reel I mention in the video.

    What else did I cover in this episode?

    • A new car project which is stitching up wonderfully,
    • An update and learning opportunity regarding my Mystery Kits,
    • Birthday shenanigans for my girls,
    • ...and other bits & pieces!

    I realised while wrapping up this episode that I forgot to share a finished piece, so I will be sharing that next FlossTube - stay tuned!

  • FlossTube #101 - The Wheels on the Bus Go... Cross-Stitched!

    Join me for another stitchy catch-up as I share everything Iโ€™ve been working on over the past two weeks โ€” including six adorable finished Stitch People portraits featuring school buses (perfect for the amazing bus drivers at my daughtersโ€™ school who have been so kind to her all year ๐Ÿงก). I can't wait to gift them!

    Also; surprise! I've extended my mini mystery cross-stitch kit availability, so todayโ€™s the final day to grab a kit. It disappears at 10pm PDT today โ€” donโ€™t miss out!

    What else did I cover in this episode?

    • Progress on Flower Meadowโ€”still on track (yay!), but Iโ€™m holding my breath about the fabric situation...
    • My (finally!) started "Extraordinary Birds" stitch-along by Lola Crow. Iโ€™m not caught up and thatโ€™s okay!
    • A new Zodiac cross-stitch pattern: Gemini is here!
    • ...and other things, including a quick IRL update!

    I also shared an update on a long-time work-in-progress that Iโ€™m finally hoping to release next month โ€” fingers crossed! Itโ€™s been simmering on the backburner for a while, so it feels exciting (and a little nerve-wracking) to bring it back into the spotlight.
    Iโ€™d really appreciate your input too: Iโ€™m stuck on what colour the writing should be. Obviously white wonโ€™t work โ€” so if youโ€™ve got a suggestion, please pop it in the comments!

  • FlossTube #100 - After Almost 4 Years; Here We Are. What A Milestone!

    Can you believe it? ONE HUNDRED EPISODES! ๐ŸŽ‰

    To celebrate my 100th episode, I am releasing a small [but adorable!] limited edition mystery kit (link below) that you can grab now on my website! It's called "FlossTube Celebration" and will be available for purchase for just 2 weeks. Final available day will be June 1st.

    What else did I cover in this episode?

    • As mentioned; lots of completed teacher & therapist gifts!,
    • A new Zodiac pattern available now,
    • Some WIPs, including one missing from last FlossTube
    • A silly, fun little completed project (that only took me ~1.5hrs to design & stitch)

    And also, please let me know: Which size embroidery hoop should I use for Steve?

    Drop a comment below and tell me what you think of my teacher & therapist gifts, what you're working on currently and whether you have Le Poisson Steve also stuck in your head, too โ™ฅ

  • FlossTube #99 - Teacher Gifts Are Everywhere Right Now!

    If you're a designer who gets patterns like this printed and shipped to local needlepoint stores, can you please reach out and let me know how!

    It's that time of year (one of two, that is) and I'm happy to be able to share lots of work completed on teacher & therapist gifts for 2025. At the time of recording, I still had two pieces to work on, but I'm happy to report that at the time of releasing the episode, the two pieces are complete and ready to be gifted! Phew!

    What else did I cover in this episode?

    • As mentioned; lots of completed teacher & therapist gifts!,
    • A new Zodiac pattern available now,
    • Some WIPs, including one missing from last FlossTube
    • A silly, fun little completed project (that only took me ~1.5hrs to design & stitch)

    And also, please let me know: Which size embroidery hoop should I use for Steve?

    Drop a comment below and tell me what you think of my teacher & therapist gifts, what you're working on currently and whether you have Le Poisson Steve also stuck in your head, too โ™ฅ

  • FlossTube #98 - It's Been A Very Busy Fortnight. So Much to Share!

    Surprise! A new cross-stitch pattern-that wasn't really even a "thing" during my previous FlossTube episode-was released this past fortnight! I would love to get your feedback on it, as it's the first in a year-long series!

    And what do you think about the design for the second piece? Fingers crossed I can release it on schedule ๐Ÿคž

    What else did I cover in this episode?

    • A heap of stuff that happened outside of stitchy-stuff,
    • Shared my teacher & therapist gift designs,
    • Touched on some absent works-in-progress,
    • โ€ฆand other things!

    Drop a comment below and tell me your thoughts on the patterns mentioned (& shared), whether you're working on any of the same cross-stitch stitch-alongs I'm also doing, or whether you celebrated Easter โ™ฅ

  • FlossTube #97 - A Big [Stitching] Catch-Up Was Necessary

    I made a [horrible] realisation right before I started recording this FlossTube episode. I haven't made designs for teacher appreciation week still... and it's ALREADY April. Ahhh!

    Despite this, I have made great progress on my active works-in-progress - including my 'Flower Meadow'! It felt *so* good to catch up on that project properly. Now I just need to get back into the groove and continue it each day โค

    โœจ Drop a comment below and tell me what you're working on (with a pattern/kit link, if you've got one!), share your thoughts on my newest cross-stitch pattern, "Not Less", and - most importantly - how I should celebrate my 100th FlossTube episode. It's coming up so soon!
