Flosstube 58 - A Springtime Finish

Summary AI

Jacinta, host of Crafting on the Plains, shares a springtime finish and several WIP updates in this episode. She begins by showing her completed piece, 'Red Cat Sleeping' by Cute Patterns by Maria, which she started as a birthday project. She discusses the backstitch-heavy design and the fabric and threads used, and mentions a debate with her daughter over where to display it.

Jacinta then explains her 'Make Up May' initiative, where she caught up on missed WIP-Go calls. She shows progress on 'Silk Route' by Modern Folk Embroidery, which she is stitching with a purple fade using Color 'n Cotton threads on Picture This Plus fabric. She also works on 'Christmas Wonderland' by Caterpillar Cross Stitch, which she finds slow due to the evenweave fabric and many color changes, and on 'Nature's Journey' by Sprouting Lupine, focusing on the spring section.

She also shares her progress on 'Capricorn' by Nora Corbett, which she is stitching for herself as a Capricorn, using petite stitches for the skin and substituting some beads. Finally, she announces the winner of her giveaway and presents an 'FFO Battle' between two projects: 'Real Comfort' by Modern Folk Embroidery and 'White Winter Moth' by Kathy Barrick, asking viewers to vote on which one she should fully finish first.
