Flosstube #60 My Fortnightly Progress

Summary AI

In this fortnightly flosstube, the host, DarkXStitch, apologises for a short video due to hot weather that has limited her stitching. She thanks her first two channel members and then goes through her WIPs, starting with Tomb Raider, her 'sofa stitch', which only saw 172 stitches and is now at 3.72%. She plans to swap it out for Simple Pleasures as her living room stitch, especially as she is going on honeymoon on the 28th and won't stitch for a week.

She then shows progress on her Long Dog Sampler, which she stitched on her weekly Twitch stream, adding 442 stitches and reaching 9.42%. She mentions naming a squirrel 'Mavis' on stream and plans to continue with this sampler. Next, she shows her massive Lord of the Rings project, which is now at 38.23% after 2,393 stitches, and explains why it's on an aluminium scroll frame due to its weight.

Finally, she announces a Halloween stitch-along on her Discord, featuring a haunted teapot pattern that uses Japanese floss, which she has converted to DMC. She invites viewers to join in and offers to share the conversion list via email. She also mentions plans to stitch Dark Queen of the Seas on stream next week.
