Stitching Through the Lows to Find the Joys
Description:
In this episode, I'm getting honest about dealing with a bit of "life apathy" lately and how I've been leaning into my stitching to find some much-needed joy and grounding.
It's been a busy couple of weeks on the frames, featuring progress on everything from "Extraordinary Birds" to the "Fairytale" HAED stitch-along. I'm also sharing a look at the second-to-last release in my Zodiac series — Aquarius is officially here!
We're also chatting about some fun new arrivals, including gorgeous needleminders from GingerStitchAU and some beechwood hoops for framing. Beyond the floss, I'm catching you up on a very "hydrated" blood donation experience and a sweet movie afternoon with my girls. Grab your current project and a cup of tea, and let's spend some quiet time stitching together.
Some things I would love your feedback on:
- Now that the series is nearly done, would you be interested in an optional 'master' border pattern to house all twelve zodiac signs together?
- What themes or series would you love to see me design next once the Zodiac collection is complete?
- Would you like a dedicated video on how I’m approaching my 'Fairytale' full-coverage piece and how I handle 'fixing' my mistakes?
I'd love to hear your thoughts on a few things I ask throughout the video, so don't be shy in the comments!
You should drop a comment to say "hi!", like the video, and subscribe over at YouTube or Spotify if you're not already so you don't miss future FlossTubes. Doing any & all of those things helps me out immensely and it's free for you! I LOVE receiving your feedback and seeing your support 🧡

FlossTube is an online community brimming with creativity and camaraderie, centred around the love for all things needlework. Much like its cousin, YouTube, FlossTube is home to a plethora of channels run by passionate creators, affectionately known as "FlossTubers." These creators produce a wide variety of content, including project updates, tutorials, hauls (showcasing recent purchases), and even vlogs that provide a glimpse into their stitching journeys.
I'm hoping to build on my little community that I've got by expanding more to YouTube and what better way than to show off what I'm working on and boast about my latest finished pieces?
It's neat to be sharing with you all what I'm working on outside of regular social media posts, like the usual over at Instagram. I hope you're enjoying my FlossTubes! Don't forget to help out (for free!) by;
