Happy stitching, stitchy friends!

In Flosstube #21, I’m sharing all the stitchy things—including FFOs, finishes, WIPs, a new-start binge, stitchy haul, and memories from the wonderful Primrose Cottage Retreat in St. George, Utah. This retreat was about so much more than stitching. I was able to attend with my mom and spend the weekend surrounded by friends and hundreds of women who love this hobby. I’m sharing a few retreat memories, the exclusive retreat piece, and an incredibly thoughtful gift from a viewer that touched my heart.

I would love to hear from you: Have you ever attended a stitching retreat, or is there one you would love to attend someday?
Thank you so much for watching and being part of this wonderful stitching community. If you found something that inspired you, please consider liking the video and subscribing so we can continue connecting through our love of cross-stitch.
