Shownotes: Craft With Me #2

Recorded on February 13, 2019.
Today's project: Well Suited

Hump Day! What better way to relax than with some chatting and crafting? Although apparently I'm a little too scatter-brained today to be productive haha.

As promised, here are the links to the tags I answered today, via Tricia the Left Handed Stitcher's blog:
Stitcher Moose tag
Cross Stitch Wishlist tag
Stitching Style tag

Also, I mentioned the book blog I used to run: Butterfly Feet Walking on Life.

Stay tuned for a regular flosstube update next week! Happy Stitching :D

I already had this pattern in my 123stitch wish list because my dad is a carpenter by hobby. I knew I wanted to stitch it for him, and his birthday happening seemed like the perfect reason to order the pattern and fabric and get started.

It was a really fun and quick stitch, and I definitely want to finish my Arranging the Orchestra piece now! Plus, how cool is it that I at least finished stitching it on my dad's birthday? :D
