Summary AI

Elizabeth Martinez, also known as phantastitches, presents her 450th Flosstube update on September 5th, just before Labor Day in the US. She discusses her WIPGO progress for August, where she met her goals for Frost Bite by Amanda Mae MacNaughton of Ardith Design and Dutch Winter by Nurdan Kanber of Twin Peak Primitives, and started two new projects: Nativity Scene by Tiny Modernist and Bunny's House by Emily Call Stitching. She also mentions that finishing Glory in the Wind took up much of her time, preventing her from completing Frost Bite.

  • Started two new projects: Nativity Scene by Tiny Modernist and Bunny's House by Emily Call Stitching.
  • Showed progress on Merry Menagerie: Killdeer/Blue Penguins by Jeannine McGowan of The Blue Flower, nearly finishing the Killdeer.
  • Mentioned upcoming virtual stitching events: Harvest Moon Hangout (September 25-27) and Jingle Ball (December 4-6), both hosted by Lindy Stitches.
  • Discussed using leftover fabric from the Rabbit Rabbit series by Tracy Hero of Ink Circles for future small projects.
  • Plans to finish the Merry Menagerie patterns within the next few days.
