FlossTube #120 - Why I Unpicked Part of My Finished Piece + Big, Exciting News!

We're back with more stitchy goodness! This past fortnight has been a bit of a whirlwind here. Between mid-winter break with my girls and two days of beautiful snowfall, I've had plenty of time to huddle up with my stitching. I finally finished the Flower Dragon Meadow SAL, and after a little bit of "frog therapy" on a strawberry dragon, I am absolutely in love with the new yellow replacement. Plus, I have a brand new pattern release to share: "Boy Band", inspired by the Saja Boys (from "K-Pop Demon Hunters"). It's full of fire, fashion, and beautiful colours!We're also checking in on a mountain of WIPs, from the slow "reveal" of the "Fairytale" HAED SAL to some of the final stitches on my "Zodiac: Pisces" pattern, which completes the entire series! I've also been doing some 'retail therapy' with a haul from nathnolu and FlossyFoxShop — because one can never have too many patterns in their stash.The biggest news of all? I'm headed to Stitch-Con this June! I'm already dreaming about my travel projects and what to pack.Some things I would love your feedback on:I'd love to hear your thoughts on the new 'Boy Band' pattern and the progress on 'Deserving Joy'—do they feel like something you'd add to your stash? Also, did I make the right call on the dragon recolour, or would you have left the red one in?Are any of you joining me in the 2026 Fairytale HAED stitch-along? How are you finding all that confetti so far—is it a struggle or a satisfying 'reveal' for you?The biggest question of all: might I see any of you at Stitch-Con (Weekend B) this June? I'd love to know if we're going to be in the same room so we can plan a hello!Grab your current work-in-progress and a cup of your preferred beverage, and let's catch up on all things sparkly and stitched.You should drop a comment to say "hi!", like the video, and subscribe if you're not already, so you don't miss future FlossTubes.
