Summary AI

Michelle, host of MommaLovesYouGB, shares a midweek FlossTube update, explaining that she missed her usual Sunday slot due to giving a talk on Welsh samplers to the Western Reserve Sampler Guild and preparing for a friend's visit. She discusses the upcoming Koi Pond SAL starting 1 November, reminding viewers of the 31 August pre-order deadline for supplies from Korry's Little Shop, and shows a custom bag made by Pauline from SewBeBags for the SAL. She also shares a finish: the Secrets of the Sea Needle Book by The Stitching Parlor, which she personalised with fabric and thread changes. Michelle then shows progress on her first Mirabilia project, Miss Cherry Blossom, and an impulse start on Carolyn Manning's Cherry Blossom, stitched on Rosings Parlor fabric from Swan Bay Fabrics. She also mentions plans for Sampler September, including stitching her own Margaret Anne Bayon sampler and researching a group of related Welsh samplers, and shares a haul of charts, books, threads, and fabric.
