Summary AI

Mariana returns to Flosstube after a month-long break from stitching, showing progress on three large projects. She begins with an Andriana kit featuring open wings on black fabric, which she is gridding to avoid mistakes, though she notes the threads fray easily. Next, she displays a Lucas S. kit, a classic still life with grapes, which she plans to finish this year, and a Mirabilia piece called 'Madonna of the Garden' on 32ct Lugana, where she has run out of gold thread (PB26 Aztec Gold) and had to order it from another shop. She also shares a small sampler-style design given by her friend Yan, stitched on 20ct Aida with Chinese threads, and a Dimensions Gold Collection Petits kit called 'Flowering Hydrangea' that she rescued from her stash.
