Summary AI
Enfys (they/them) presents Flosstube episode 22, recorded on Friday 28th August. They begin by showing a finish: the Mill Hill Buttons & Beads 'Fairy House' kit, stitched on 14-count perforated paper. They discuss the challenges of the sky and petite beads, and their plans to digitise future Mill Hill patterns. They then show a new start from the Arets Korssting 1980 calendar, stitched with Lisa of Linguistic Stitches, and talk about their first experience with metallic threads, comparing the ease of DMC Etoile with the difficulty of DMC Light Effects. Several WIPs are shown, including 'Year In The Woods II: The Wolf' by Cottage Garden Samplings, 'Summer's Day' by Jedxstitch, 'The Herbalist' by Loombug, and 'Plants & Petrichor' by Fine Frog Stitching, with progress updates and plans for finishing by the end of the year.
