Summary AI

In Flosstube 153, Lynn, the Lancashire Stitcher, shares a chaotic couple of weeks filled with stitching, personal updates, and a new start. She begins by showing her new project, 'Life by the Sea' by Little Loops, an exclusive from Big Stitch 2026, which she started with Emma from Emma's Stitches. Lynn then presents a large number of WIPs, including her temperature stitching projects, which she has fallen behind on but is not stressing about. She also introduces a new stitch-along called ABCINGO, where she has kept up with daily draws, showing progress on various projects like 'Vintage Christmas' and 'Autumn in the Pines'.

  • New start: 'Life by the Sea' by Little Loops, stitched on 36ct linen from Not Another Sampler, with a Letty Stitch needle minder.
  • Temperature stitching update: Lady of the Flag, Singing the Blues, Kids Leave Handprints, Enchanted Alphabet, Begin Row, and Voice of the Shepherd, with some projects only stitched once due to a hectic week.
  • ABCINGO stitch-along: Lynn is up to date, showing progress on Vintage Christmas, Autumn in the Pines, Coffee or Wine Today?, Take Time to Knit, And Be Kind to One Another, Peace Tree, Unplug and Go Outside, Your Wings, Gathering Acorns, Noel Rouge, Enchanted Aurora, and Simple Gifts: Grace.
  • Stash enhancement: Ordered 'Winter Love' by Mirabilia from 123 Stitch, along with bead packs, for a start-along with friend Gretchen on October 1st. Also received two fabrics from Fabrics by Craftikate (July and August).
  • Personal update: Lynn's wrist has healed enough to drive again, and she has surgery scheduled for a cyst in her gum. She also shares that her mother is unwell, leading to cancellations of upcoming events.
  • Book reviews: Lynn discusses recent audiobooks, including 'The Searcher' by Tana French, 'All Her Fault' by Andrea Mara, and several in the Helen Grace series by M.J. Arlidge.
