What is the August 2021 wrap up video about (BetsyInStitches)?

Accepted Answer

This is my end-of-month check-in where I talk about what crafting looked like for me in August 2021. I’m sharing a realistic wrap up as someone crocheting, sewing, and quilting while pacing chronic illness. It’s meant to be cozy, honest, and helpful if your own making comes in seasons too.

I live in Knoxville, TN with my husband and my wonderfully creative 8-year-old daughter. My channel is crochet and sewing vlogs—wrap ups, yarn hauls, unboxings, tutorials, reviews, and life updates. I use crochet as a way to unwind from daily stress, just like a lot of you.
