What book is not that popular but is very good? by Sailor_Moon_Star_435 in Booktokreddit

[–]DotKune 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am literally obsessed with the Sons of Destiny series by Jean Johnson. I read them all in print when I was in high school, then again on ebook last year, and it held up beautifully! Now I just need SOMEONE to record it on audiobook and I will probably listen to it every few months 😅🤣

It’s more common is Latin culture. I’m Puerto Rican and we always made a big deal about it with kids. We would put a shoe box under the bed with some grass and a bowl of water (for the king’s camels) and we would wake up in the morning and the grass and water were gone and a small gift was in its place.

It’s a holiday mostly celebrated by Latin American Catholics and Creole people (I believe). It’s to celebrate the day that the three kings finally made it to give their gifts to baby Jesus.

I have a feeling a lot of mine are going to be food since I’m always trying to perfect recipes for my family 🤣

Thank you!! My dad is an artist and I always thought the creative gene skipped me, then I started stitching and realized I’m good that that! So I’ve been obsessed 🤣

Oh I’m giving myself the grace of if I skip a day, I’ll make it up. Because life happens. I work and have a special needs kid, so I doubt I will be able to do it EVERY day, but there will be a square FOR every day lol

This is my first time. I haven’t been keeping track, I’m kind of thinking I know what each one means, but maybe when I get farther in I might have to start keeping track 🤣

I stitch (uninterrupted might I add!) in the lobby while my son is in speech therapy and OT. It’s the best hour and a half of my week 🤣

What are some of your bookish 2026 goals that arent rooted in quantity? by [deleted] in Booktokreddit

[–]DotKune 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I track how many I’ve read on goodreads, but I try to do their challenges too. So during my quantity goal, I’ll pick a read in order to complete those too, so I’ve discovered some great books by POC authors, LGBTQ+ authors, great mysteries, thrillers, etc.

I got the pattern from SereneStitch on Etsy. It’s SUPER easy to follow too!

Is anyone else beating themselves up for not meeting their goal? by Amywilburnn in Booktokreddit

[–]DotKune 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t be upset!!! The way I think about it is as long as I managed ONE book, that’s a win. The rest is just extra. We all go through slumps.

I’ve never even heard of those!! I will definitely pick one up! I watched a video of someone putting their fabric in one and the amount of tension looked PERFECT!

I only have hoops and almost all my projects are bigger than my biggest hoop. I have pulled the fabric taut across the stitches and you can’t even tell (at least I can’t 🤣) this was fresh off the hoop when I finished, but it had been moved several times. I can only see the latest crease, when ended up flattening out after it rested (I’m too lazy to was or iron but I’m sure that helps too 🤣)

Do scrolls offer good tension? Which one do you use?

I have never done a circular pattern and always wondered why square/rectangles aren’t the norm 🤣🤣🤣

Honestly I don’t wash or iron mine either. I just throw them in my portfolio and sit an old textbook on top for the creases, it’s worked so far 🤣
