Description from YouTube
Today is all about my #JulyIsBooked wrap-up featuring designers Lola Crow, Tiny Modernist, Clouds Factory, Barbara Ana, and more! July is my birthday month, and to celebrate, I asked you all to join me in stitching bookish themed projects…and loads of you did! Plus I have some projects bags to giveaway!

I want to say a massive thank you to absolutely everyone who got involved in #julyisbooked. Whether you picked up a brand-new start or dug out an old book-themed WIP, it has been great to see. We had so many stitchers joining in, from here in the UK to Australia and all the way to the USA. Thank you all so much for stitching along with me and making my birthday month so special.

I spent the month working exclusively on book-themed projects (except for Welcome to the Circus which snuck in at the start), and I loved every single second of it. I didn’t get any finishes, but I made some fantastic progress and kicked off some exciting new starts. I have nine bookish projects to show you today! So, let’s dive right into my July bookish WIP parade!
