Flosstube episode 1: WIP parade and finishes

Summary AI

In her first Flosstube episode, Kenon introduces herself and her cross-stitching journey, which began in April. She shares her background in knitting and other fiber arts, and explains that she was inspired by other Flosstube creators. She then presents a parade of her works in progress and finishes, starting with an old Dimensions kit and moving on to more modern patterns she discovered on Instagram.

  • Kenon shows her first-ever cross-stitch project, a Dimensions kit called Chickadees on a Branch, which she finds difficult to work on due to the printed muslin fabric.
  • She discusses her love for Sprouting Lupine patterns, having completed Dog Days and Thunderstorm Nature Walk, and is currently working on the Evergreen SAL.
  • She shares her ambitious project, Persephone's Garden by JEDxStitch, which she initially struggled with on 46ct linen but now enjoys on 36ct.
  • She shows several small finishes, including Black and Jack by Teresa Kogut and N is for Nerve by Beth Twist, and mentions her plans for Halloween-themed stitching.
  • She talks about her upcoming attendance at the Harvest Moon Hangout hosted by Lindy Stitches, where she will take a class with Beth Twist to make a coffin pincushion.
  • She mentions her current WIP, Bunny Garden by Mill Hill, which she finds challenging due to confetti stitches and beads.
