Flosstube #36 - Fall and Halloween 2026 WIP Parade

Summary AI

Laura, host of Loves Rubberstamps & Needle Crafts, presents her Fall and Halloween 2026 WIP parade, introducing a seasonal rotation method based on daily temperatures. She explains that she will stitch on ten projects over September, October, and November, using a monthly tracker to log high and low temperatures and assigning each project to a number (1-10). For each temperature reading, she will complete 100 stitches on the corresponding project, aiming to make progress on older WIPs and manage her rotation effectively. Laura showcases each of her ten fall-themed projects, detailing their designers, fabrics, and current progress. These include November Quilt by Paula Vaughan, Herbal Grimoire by Samplers & Stories, Raven Queen by Mirabilia, Harvest Keeper by Plum Street Samplers, Queen of Leopards by Jayne Netley Mayhew, Trick or Treat by Lena Lawson Needlearts, Sweet Tooth by Raise the Roof Designs, The Gather Inn by Plum Street Samplers, Scary Sampler by Heartstring Samplery, and a new start, Corny by Teresa Kogut. She shares her fabric choices, many from hand-dyed or specialty shops, and discusses her stitching preferences, such as thread counts and strand usage. Throughout the video, Laura also mentions various project bags from Etsy shops, including her sister Lindsey's Midwest Stitcher 85, and other accessories like needle minders and floss books. She discusses her plans for future videos, including a full coverage WIP parade and monthly fall updates. At the end, she shares a bonus project: a Heartstring Samplery class kit for a coffin project, which she plans to stitch at work.
