Flosstube #15| Collaboration time! Introducing 3D printed ornaments

Summary AI

Monica, host of Monica's Stitching Studio, shares a busy Flosstube episode from her craft room. She starts by showing three finishes: Wildflower Garden, a design from a year ago stitched on 32-count linen with over-dyed cottons; Summer Moon Garden part one, a wren on a birdhouse with coneflowers; and the August piece from her Monthly Moments stitch-along, featuring a sunflower and tomatoes. She also shows a WIP called Watermelon Hill on navy 25-count evenweave, plus a new Halloween start, and mentions her freebie Little Heartland Bee.

The main feature is a collaboration with her sister Julie, who has started a business making 3D-printed, plant-derived plastic ornaments. Monica has designed cross-stitch patterns for these, which are stitchable on both sides and come in shapes like pumpkins, tombstones, ghosts, coffins, and witch hats. They plan to release the Halloween ornaments on August 1st in Monica's Etsy shop, with options for kits or individual items. Julie's shop, Clever & Charming Goods, opens mid-August.

Monica also announces a 25% off sale across her entire shop from July 31st to August 2nd, and that she has converted most patterns to paper. She runs a giveaway asking viewers what they are stitching this season, and shares personal updates about her garden, hummingbirds, and family. She plans to return to Flosstube in about a month.
