FLOSSTUBE 17 - 2 WIPs, a MIP, project bags revealed, a sweet kit unboxing + Nessie steals the show

Hello and welcome to my studio! You’ve landed on a Flosstube video, where I focus on cross stitch, my pattern design journey and arty opinions. I also discuss mental health and living with invisible disability and how creativity can be a tool for coping and joy.

Today I am showing my progress on Little Acorns by Modern Folk Embroidery, which is the 2026 SAL, as well as Quaker Virtues and my own pattern, Declaration. I chat about Valentine’s Day and my 20th wedding anniversary, plus lots of plans for March stitching and designing. I also have my first unboxing/promotion of a beautiful kit from iMake.

If you like what you see please subscribe and share. Thank you and enjoy!

Best,
Thomi and Nessie and Joon and Sadie
