Hello my lovely Flosstube Friends!

March nearly broke me... but my stitch count didn't! 🧵✨
Between surgery (mine AND the dog's!), organising the Essex Needles Retreat, and a cheeky A&E visit, somehow I still managed 5 projects, 28 days of stitching and 2,724 tracked stitches. Not bad for someone who was supposed to be resting! 😅

In this video you'll find hauls, finishes, new starts, retreats, a very exciting new stitching tool I'm obsessed with, and a project that got a Susie-inspired makeover...
Oh, and I may have spent a completely reasonable amount of money on something gorgeous at the retreat. No regrets. 💅

Come and see what I got up to. I promise it was worth the wait!
