Quite A Few Near-Finishes, Social Media Updates & A Sigh of Relief

Description:

This fortnight, I'm celebrating a gorgeous new finish with FlossyFoxShop's "Winter Fantasy House", now hanging happily beside its autumn sibling, and giving you a sneak peek at "Deserving Joy" — what will be the next self-care piece in my "Adulting" series. Between near-finishes on the "Quilting Fox" and the final mammoth on the "Museum After Midnight" SAL, the stitchy mojo has been in full swing.

Of course, life wouldn't be complete without a bit of real-world drama to keep me on my toes [foreboding foreshadowing 🫣]. I share the whirlwind story of a rather terrifying foot scare (complete with a doctor dropping the word "gangrene" before a wonderful vascular specialist gave me the all-clear!), fawn over my lovely husband's hard work on StitchKit, and beg you all to hold me accountable because October is here and a certain Halloween costume isn't going to finish itself!

Some things I would love your feedback on:

  1. Would you like to see a dedicated "Finishes Parade" video featuring all the pieces I’ve stitched from other amazing designers?
  2. Should I finish the final woolly mammoth for Museum After Midnight now, or pace myself so FlossTube #138 gets its very own grand finish?

Leave a comment to keep me on track:

  • What handmade Halloween projects or autumn finishes are you racing against the clock to get done right now?

Discussed Topics


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;
