Floss tube 127 - The End of Summer Break

Summary AI

Kate returns from a summer break and explains her plans for the new school year as an elementary school librarian in Northern California. She introduces a new weekly stitching challenge called 'Bundesla stitching', where she uses football match events to determine her stitching goals, and she also starts a 'chaos blanket' crochet project using hand-dyed yarn, with daily short videos documenting the random colour selection process. Kate then shows several new cross-stitch starts, including pieces from The Historical Sampler Company and Caterpillar Cross Stitch, and discusses her fabric choices, such as 28-count kelpie from Under the Sea Fabrics and a Fiberlicious fabric called 'Where Mave Begins'. She also talks about participating in Semiain's 'Insane with a Twist' bingo event, where DMC numbers are called daily to determine stitch counts, and shares her excitement about a Dungeon Crawler Carl Halloween advent calendar she ordered, along with other book-related purchases and plans.
