Flosstube 59: stitching, knitting, poetry and prose

Summary AI

Ros Clark returns with a wide-ranging Flosstube episode covering stitching, knitting, poetry, and prose. She shares feedback on a wedding sampler by Shakespeare's Peddler, shows a Mill Hill Mushroom House ornament finish, and discusses progress on a collaborative piece with Heartstring Samplery and Plum Street Samplers. The video also includes a report from a Cheshire Stitchers meetup, plans for upcoming stitching events, and a return to knitting after a long hiatus due to a medical condition. Ros also reads a poem she wrote and talks about books she enjoyed on holiday.

  • Wedding sampler 'A Saviour's Praise' by Shakespeare's Peddler was well received by the couple.
  • Finished Mill Hill 'Mushroom House' ornament, noting it didn't fit her magnetic frame perfectly.
  • Started 'Float' by Heartstring Samplery, a companion to 'Sting' by Plum Street Samplers, stitched on fabric swapped with a friend.
  • Attended Cheshire Stitchers meetup and has a busy schedule of stitching events ahead.
  • Returned to knitting after five years, finishing the sleeves on a Betty Mouat sweater by Kate Davies Designs.
  • Read a poem she wrote and discussed several books she read on holiday.
