Summary AI

Jessie Marie, host of FlossTube #312, discusses her stitching progress for the final week of Quarter Two 2026. She shares updates on six works in progress, including her focus project 'April' by HAED, which has reached 90,000 stitches and is ahead of schedule. She also explains her new 'MCATs' (Monogamous, Categorical, and Temperature Stitching) system, which combines temperature stitching with project rotation, and discusses her decision to step back from supporting Long Dog Samplers due to a controversial design release. The video includes plans for Quarter Three, a book segment with two finished reads and a July TBR, and a brief life update.

  • Jessie completes 5,732 stitches in the week, with three days over 1,000 stitches.
  • Her focus project 'April' reaches 90,000 stitches, 57.64% complete, and is ahead of the 10-page yearly goal.
  • She introduces her 'MCATs' system (Monogamous, Categorical, and Temperature Stitching) and explains the 'PhD' and 'MD' milestones.
  • Jessie announces she will no longer actively support Long Dog Samplers due to a controversial design release in May 2025.
  • Ivory Crow is left 12 stitches short of a page finish, leading to a plan to finish it via the Mileston Manor game.
  • She shares her July TBR, including 'The Glory of Gold' by V.F. Mejia, 'The Ninth Rain' by Jen Williams, and 'Queen of Faces' by Petra Lord.

{f a q} Frequently Asked Questions
What frame do you stitch on?
- I use a Millennium frame from NeedleNeeds in the U.K.

How do you film your videos?
- I use Final Cut Pro X (Mac) for filming and editing.

What are all of those threads hanging down from your HAED?
- I stitch full coverage using a technique called parking. I highly recommend tutorial videos from Carolyn Mazzeo to learn the technique. If you want to see more about how I do my diagonal blocks, see my full coverage demo playlist here: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLi5s2tHW0BxM8SOzgrTCtJeM8O4FjFaTo
