What I Learned from Flosstube: Tales of Thread, Joy & Slight Obsession

Pull up a cozy chair, grab your stitching, and get ready to laugh, nod, and maybe cry a little—because this is the book every cross stitcher didn’t know they needed.

What I Learned from Flosstube is a heartwarming, humorous, and completely relatable journey through one stitcher’s rediscovery of cross stitch thanks to the magical world of Flosstube. From project bags and lighting upgrades to samplers that tell family stories and the “one more chart” syndrome, this book celebrates the passion, community, and slightly unhinged joy of being a stitcher today.

With help from her stitching husband Kelly (who calmly stitches while the author kitts like a maniac), the author shares tales of pattern collecting, floss walls, Sunday stitching rituals, and the charming chaos of Flosstube-inspired inspiration. You'll spot nods to beloved creators like Brenda the Serial Starter, Lori Holt, Country Stitchers, Java Girl Stitches, and more.

Each chapter ends with a delightful Stitcher’s Charm—offering encouragement, affirmation, and just the right amount of sparkle for your stitching soul.

Whether you’re a seasoned stitcher, a hopeful beginner, or someone who just “accidentally” subscribed to thirty Flosstubers, this book is for you.
