Thank you so much for tuning in to the Cozyegg flosstube/podcast! In this episode I share my first Year of WIPs finish, Dark13Stitching, and the start of a new SAL.
SALs
- Join Emily (eclecticpossessions) and I on Instagram for #dark13stitching where we stitch on something dark and creepy on the 13th of every month
- Join the Hawk Run Hollow SAL hosted by Abi Bellastitch and I – on Instagram you can use the #hrhvillagesal if you’re stitching on Village and/or use the tag #letsallmovetohawkrunhollow for any Hawk Run pieces. Abi set up a Facebook group called Let’s All Move to Hawk Run Hollow if you’d like to join!
- Year of WIPs Challenge in Melanie’s Soulful Stitching Facebook group

Thanks so much for watching!
Grateful for eleven years.
I wonder if you could possibly help me with something? I have just started the Papillion mystery sampler and I may be going mad but I can’t find one of the symbols on the key. It’s the one that the D is stitched in.
Lynsey, you’re not going crazy. The * symbol that the D is in should be the symbol for Black Cherry. There was a correction in one of the later issues I think, but I made a note of it on my pattern. Hope that helps!
