Flosstube #2 | WIP Updates, New Start & Cross Stitch Supplies Haul

Whose ready to cross stitch! This is #Flosstube 2. 

WIP UPDATES:

Project: Hoa Hoa Hoa akaTwilight - 1700 Stitches since my last video (a lot)

My goal for this one is to finish it by October/November which is about 4000 stitches a month. I am hoping I can maintain that but you know what they say about best laid plans!

Project Hummingbird - about 100 half stitches
Doing this one has made be realize I do not like 18ct Aida! It could be my needle because I am finding that I am fighting trying to get my needle through the fabric and these are only half crosses. I can not imagine what it is going to be like when I start on the full crosses. I have also tried a few different sized needles so this fabric might not be for me.

My New Start is...

Succubus!  The art is by Christopher Lovell and it's charted by Unconventional Cross Stitch.  

I mentioned in my last Flosstube that all the supplies is coming and it arrive! I officially started this project on July 5th 2026. My goal is to complete this within 6 to 8 years. Yes, I have giving myself a two year buffer. It's 362,600 stitches which is 45,300 - 60,400 stitches a year which I find manageable (for now lol.)
