Summary AI
In this Flosstube Extra, Jackie from The Stitch List shares her planning and preparation for a stitchy game based on the Great British Bake Off, which she is playing alongside her other stitching projects. She explains the rules she has adapted from a game created by JessieMarieDoesStuff, where each week's technical challenge winner receives 25 stitches, and eliminated bakers receive 100 stitches. Jackie has assigned each of the 12 bakers a spice house from the Spice House cross stitch pattern, designed by Summer McDonald and available from Mary Stitching on Etsy, and she has marked out the fabric to make counting easier as she stitches.
