Flosstube 16 - A Frantic State Fair Finish and A Murder of Crows Begins Soon

Summary AI

In Flosstube 16, Laura B from Mostly Crafty shares a busy update covering stitchy kindness, thrifting finds, state fair entries, and her upcoming crow-themed stitch-along. She begins by showing gifts from her friend Amber, including a vintage cross-stitch mug, pattern books, and a stash donation from a friend's grandmother. She also discusses her thrifting haul of magazines and patterns from a Goodwill in Monroe, Washington, which she got for a bargain price.

  • Laura entered nine finishes into the Evergreen State Fair, including her only new finish, Little Liberty Sampler by Siren Stitchworks, which she had to frame creatively due to a margin error.
  • She started a new project called Witch Plaque by Lindsay Swearingen (Tusk and Cardinal) from the Magickal Cross Stitch book, stitching on 28ct Shadow Lugana from Picture This Plus with Weeks Dye Works Beige.
  • Laura announced the 'A Murder of Crows SAL' starting September 1st, where participants can stitch any corvid-related pattern and share using #AMurderOfCrowsSAL.
  • She plans to start Mary Morgans by Fox & Rabbit for her birthday, along with several other crow-themed projects like Tanner's Trinkets by Boomerang Stitches and Crow Quaker by Sprouting Lupine.
  • Laura made bag tags and keychains with beads and charms during a crafting weekend with her friend Amber.
  • She gave away a copy of 'Closely Kept #5' by The Shaded Stitchery to Lisa from Linguistic Stitches.
