Flosstube #1 - Intro, WIP Parade and lots of Haul!

Welcome to my flosstube channel - A channel where I introduce myself and talk about all my current cross stitching projects (WIPS), and show you lots of fun haul!

I am a lover of bees and enjoy stitching a wide variety of projects! I have an eye for a bargain and love visiting local craft and sewing fairs.
