Grandma put a needle and thread in my hand at age 5...I am 62 and still have needle and thread in my hand and a finger that looks like a human pin cushion...I don't care for a thimble much. You're all inspiring and your voice is calming. Thanks for sharing. I did "Boro" on my husband's worn out shirt and it looks and feels yummy - very tactile. Thanks again, lj
Thank you! Visible mending on clothing is so great. Grandma’s are the best. 🧵😊🪡
Your voice and teaching manner is very calming, i have loved watching this and i am subscribing to see more of these. Thank you!
Thank you! Glad you’re here😊🧵🪡
Loving your little iron
It’s just perfect for those little pieces! It’s a clover mini iron and I’ve had it forever 😊🧵🪡
I find watching you is so calming and really resets my mind when it get cluttered with too many options. You are my go to videos to put my head back to a state of mind where I can start to create again without all the ideas bombarding me at once 🥰
That’s great to hear. Keeping it simple is the way to go 😊🧵🪡
Very helpful. I was abit stuck with my slow stitching. Feel i can get started again.
I love your mini iron too, it's so tiny and cute.
Thank you! Yes the iron is so handy. It’s a Clover Mini Iron 😊🧵🪡
I admire your ability to verbalise the creative processes that stand behind every choice you make! It's fantastic! ❤👏👏👏
Thanks so much!😊🧵🪡
I really appreciate how well you describe your slow-stitching technique, how you make your decisions, etc. You have such a pleasant, calming voice, and I feel myself getting in a creative mood just listening to you. I have done all kinds of needlework, but slow-stitching is fairly new to me and seems to be my most favorite right now.
Thank you! Slow Stitching has so many creative options for experienced needleworkers. Glad you're here!😀🧵🪡

Очень медитативные занятие и очень красивые изделия. ❤
Thank you!
Merci.
These look just delicious! I can't wait to start! Question: I'd like to send some to my granddaughter who I rarely get to see, but the backs are exposed. Is there a video where you explain how to put something on the back? Thank you!
Thank you! I attach a backing to my scroll. You can see it in part 3. It starts about 2:40 minutes in czcams.com/video/xG0foOGnzm4/video.htmlsi=HNJ2YfY9rxnVzodz
You could also use a binding method if you would like the backing to show on the front. I show that process in this video starting at about 6:50 czcams.com/video/AmGoTe5wvoM/video.htmlsi=5FlYxT6Vkf0G_kTC
In that video I do it at the beginning of the project (before stitching) but you could also do it after stitching, keeping in mind that the fabric would come to front and cover the edges.
Good morning. your work is magnificent and it makes you want to sew. Thanks for the tutorial. I wanted to ask you if you wrap the thread around the little cardboard boxes or if we can buy these ready-made cardboard boxes? THANKS. Anne Marie.
Thank you! I wrap the floss around the bobbins and yes you can buy them - check out this short video where I show what I do czcams.com/users/shortsYjuuKRVwx5s?feature=share
Merci

What do you do with all these small bits of stitching? Do you put them into a bigger project of some sort?
Lots of things!
A drawstring pouch: czcams.com/video/p90MSlpKHFc/video.html
A needle case, pincushion or scissors case: czcams.com/play/PLQ5A2G3zAe-SMyYJBRec1UzQFFZw_XLWD.html
A scroll: czcams.com/play/PLQ5A2G3zAe-QhnCNFxgBgYPFV7umjvBWJ.html
Or a work of art: czcams.com/video/3fCyIpyAxt0/video.html
Quick question: Does your hand/fingers get tired when your stitching through thicker material? Any tips? 😊
Yes! I aim for soft backing that’s easy to stitch through and thinner fabrics like cotton lawn, cotton voile or silk. When I use thicker fabrics that are harder to stitch through I don’t stitch as heavily, take breaks and use either gripping silicone thimbles or needle pulling discs (small round rubbery/silicone).😊🧵🪡

What can these fabric collages be used for?

Lovely Lovely 🫶🌟
Thank you!😊🧵🪡
So helpful to hear your thought process 🪡
Great!😊🧵🪡
Is this sashiko?
No, although it can sometimes look similar. Sashiko uses various often repeating patterns & different needles and threads.
What is slow stitching?
Simply put it is stitching by hand for the enjoyment of the process without the goal of perfection or the end project. The running stitch is the most common stitch but any stitch can be incorporated as there are no rules.
@@peaceofpi-studio thank you!
@@peaceofpi-studio в мне нравится, чтоб был результат. Сейчас шью курточку. Стегаю вручную всё изделие.
