Summary AI
Moira, host of thechampagnestitcher, presents her organization system for her collection of 'fancy ladies' cross-stitch patterns, primarily by Mirabilia, Bella Filipina, Lavender & Lace, Nora Corbett, and Butternut Road. She uses an accordion document folder to store each pattern with its called-for beads and planned fabric, showing how she kits up projects and keeps track of materials. She goes through each project in detail, discussing fabric choices, bead substitutions (Kreinik replaced with Petite Treasure Braid due to a shortage), and her plans for stitching them, including attending the Essex Needle Retreat.
