Summary AI

Marissa, host of Candid Cross Stitch, shares her seventh Flosstube video, covering two UFOs, two new starts, WIP updates, a bingo update, a thrifting haul, and the start of two stitching games. She begins by explaining her decision to set aside two projects: Moon Fairy, which she is DNFing due to lack of interest, and a hummingbird pattern, which she is UFOing due to counting issues. She then provides updates on her eight active projects, including Twilight, Teacups, New Moon, and Bloom, sharing stitch counts and progress percentages.

  • Marissa DNFs Moon Fairy and UFOs a hummingbird pattern, explaining her reasons for each.
  • She shows progress on Twilight, Teacups, New Moon, and Bloom, with detailed stitch counts.
  • Two new starts are introduced: Phantom Queen and Moragon, both by Jennifer Roboto Lesser, stitched on 28-count fabric.
  • A bingo card update reveals three squares crossed off and adjustments for the UFOs.
  • A thrifting haul includes 10 Mirabilia patterns, which Marissa is thrilled about.
  • She starts two stitching games: Great British Bake Off and Dancing with the Stars, assigning projects to contestants.

Stitching Games:

Great British Bakeoff - this game is from: https://www.youtube.com/@JessieMarieDoesStuff 

There are 12 bakers who compete each week. All 12 bakers are assigned one of my current WIPS (I currently have 12 in total). There are stitch counts allocated towards achievements in the episode. Each flosstuber will have different numbers or tasks so change this to fit you:

Handshake - 25 stitches
First in technical - 100 stitches
Last in technical - 50 stitches
Star Baker - 150 Stitches
Eliminated - 200 Stitches
Finale Winner - 300 Stitches 

Note: I looked at ways to watch this in Canada. I do believe it is available on CTV Gem (or at least all the other season are) I don't know if it will update per week. I will keep you posted if I can actually watch this!

Dancing with the Stars Stitching Game - watch her flosstube 191 and 192 for more details. https://www.youtube.com/@jennthecaffeinatedcrafter5679

There are 16 contestants partnered with a pro ballroom dancer. I have allocated one project to each of the couples. Since I only have 12 projects, I doubled up. 

The stitches I will do based on achievements:
Highest Score of the night: 100 Stitches
Eliminated: 200 Stitches
In the bottom 3: 50 Stitches 

I am adding here because I just watched Jenn's latest flosstube and she had these I like them. 

The first 10 of the season (which ever couple that is) gets: 100 stitches
The first perfect score (which would be 30) gets: 200 stitches
