Summary AI
In this Flosstube episode, Sonia (Diam En Rose) shares her summer stitching update, covering two months of projects. She begins by recounting two wonderful in-person meetings with fellow stitchers: a visit from Pascale (Les passions de Passy) at a neighbourhood party, and an impromptu meeting with France (Avec du fil et une aiguille) in Montreal, where they enjoyed poutine together. She also mentions plans to meet Mélanie (Diamenfolie) and Geneviève (Once Upon a Thread) in Quebec City at the end of August.
Sonia then discusses her stitching progress, noting that she stitched 24,645 stitches over the two months, with two new starts and one finish. She discusses abandoning a Needle Lot Design piece, setting aside her gnome project until January, and her ongoing dislike for Chinese threads, which she has been replacing with DMC. She shows progress on several projects, including the Cat's Eye, Long Dog Sampler, mermaid and princess pieces, and a new start called Stargazer.
Sonia also highlights her finished project, a Flamingo Fantastico by Lucas, and discusses her plans for upcoming projects, including a new SAL called Pandora Xstitch on Etsy, which she plans to stitch on a hand-dyed canvas. She ends the video by asking viewers to comment with a mermaid or cat emoji and encourages them to subscribe.
