Thank you so much for tuning in to the Cozyegg flosstube/podcast! In this episode I share progress on my WIPS, Dark13Stitching, and my plans for Stitch Maynia.

SALs

  • Join Emily (eclecticpossessions) and I on Instagram for #dark13stitching where we stitch on something dark and creepy on the 13th of every month
