She also shows a range of other kits, including a 40-count piece with specialty stitches that she is nervous to start, a Lindy Stitches design called Love Hopes All Things, and a Bowl Full of Halloween style from Luminous Fiber Arts. Throughout, she shares her fabric and thread choices, often using Picture This Plus fabrics and DMC floss, and mentions her preference for kitting from stash.

Description from YouTube
I’m doing “Tiny Modernist August” and finally starting the many cross-stitch projects I’ve already kitted up—so I’m taking you bag-by-bag through my patterns, fabrics, and floss picks (with lots of seasonal, Quaker, bee, and Halloween vibes) 🧵✨🐝🎃. I also share a few pieces I’m nervous-but-excited to tackle (hello 40 count, linen, and specialty stitches!) plus new kits in progress and upcoming starts with friends 🥹📦. If you’re stitching any of these too, message me so we can start together on Instagram @stitchwithlesli 💬💛
