She begins by discussing her WIPGO pieces and travel-sized projects, noting that she didn't work on her small or medium travel pieces this week but plans to start one later in the day. She shows a Bee Stitch Me design on 25-count Willow fabric, stitched one over one with fancy flosses, and explains her plan to give it seven days of school pick-up stitching.
