 * Sorry for all the posts. One more update.
 * I installed a caching plugin (W3 Super Cache) and for now, it seems to have solved
   the font flicker issue. I assume this is because it has somehow unified and streamlined
   the loading of site components (stylesheets, scripts, etc).

 * I just tried switching from the [@import](https://wordpress.org/support/users/import/)
   to the functions.php enqueue method (since it only breaks the backend media library
   and not the site), but the font flickering persists.

 * Thanks for this information! I would love to try enqueuing the parent stylesheet
   using functions.php (instead of [@import](https://wordpress.org/support/users/import/)),
   but as I noted in my earlier post, it was breaking my media library and other
   things in the backend. Can you point me to a resource describing the proper way
   to do it?
 * The google fonts which are causing the problem, are being handled/loaded by the
   Themify Base theme. I’m inclined to believe there’s something going on with the
   theme, since at least two other people have reported the same problem here.
 * Also, the site is online now, flickering away, especially the header/logo.

 * I solved this by removing the suggested additions to “functions.php”and adding“
   @import url(“../themify-base/style.css”);” to the child theme’s “style.css”. 
   You might want to update that guide.
