Watch my 18th FlossTube right here!
What's happened?
The big thing that happened was a new finished piece!
The piece shown in the thumbnail got hand-delivered this fortnight which is always awesome to do. Seeing the reaction to my work is so great! I also have some new WIPs at the very beginning stages (just a pattern for now) but also some brand new patterns on my website available as well as two new ones that are almost ready to release, too.
Call for wedding pieces!
I've also done a call for non-"bride in white dress"-and-"groom in black tux" wedding pieces which include COVID-esque outfits, much more traditional heritage outfits (think Scottish, Japanese, African and Indian), as well as LGBTQ+ couples!
If you fit the bill on this, HMU for a portrait where I will offer a decent discount! I want to expand my portfolio in these areas.

What's FlossTube?
FlossTube is a community on YouTube of people who use fabric, thread and anything in between to create pieces of art. It not only includes cross-stitching and embroidery, but it also includes quilters, designers and anyone else who does stitching-related crafts. It's a way for someone to share what they're working on, "swag" they've received, sharing tips and techniques, celebrating finished pieces and so much more.
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;
