Summary AI
In this Flosstube update, Elizabeth Martinez shares her stitching progress for the first week of August. She begins by showing her Cross Stitch Camp piece, Glory in the Wind by Robin Pickens, a stylised American flag design stitched on 32 count Belfast linen in natural from Hobby Lobby. She explains the design features, including the navy square with 13 stars, the stripes, and the alternate text option, and notes that the birds' eyes were not stitched in the pattern, so she added white stitches for visibility. She also mentions using Weeks Dye Works threads and hopes to finish the piece by the end of the month.
