Turn slow stitching into a journal cover with removable signatures using elastic binding
I made these pieces of abstract slow stitching on holiday this year and wanted to make something useful out of them so decided to turn them into journal covers with removable signatures as I wanted to be able to use the covers over and over again. In the video I show how I extended the size of the stitching to make it big enough to cover a journal and how I add elastic to be able to add and remove signatures.

Slow stitch an Angel art doll with quilted silk wings - hand sewing Christmas slow stitching project
Переглядів 97Місяць тому
A good time of year to slow stitch another art doll, this time I show you how to make this beautiful Angel art doll which I made out of silk using a printable template and art doll face. You can get the template here: I used silk which was recycled from an old and damaged wedding dress with cotton and beading for the face but you could easily use other fabrics you have available. The following ...
Addicted to Sewing small zipper pouches and adding zippers by hand
Переглядів 712 місяці тому
In the video I show how I made some simple lined fabric pouches and add zippers by hand although they are great without the zippers just as little catch all trays. I think they make great little gifts to add things to like pens or sewing supplies and I will be making a few plain ones to add little slow stitched toppers to as well. Very handy! I'm a newbie to adding zips so I was really pleased ...

Abstract textile art using yo-yos - a new slow stitching project
Переглядів 2972 місяці тому
Yo-yos or Suffolk puffs are such relaxing little slow stitching projects. I’ve been enjoying making them again and thought I’d experiment a bit with some different textiles to make a mini piece of abstract textile art using some wool and satin fabric scraps. It's amazing the different look the materials gives and how lovely and soft the wool is to work with.

Adding a glue on purse kiss clasp - badly 😂
Переглядів 1033 місяці тому
Well my failure to pay attention led to a less than perfect result, but eventually I did manage to add this glue in purse clasp to my little hand sewn coin purse. If you want to see the tutorial I watched first, see here - it’s for a different shaped clasp but it’s a good tutorial: ua-cam.com/video/GzRsFSYv3dM/v-deo.html I’m adding the templates I drew to make these mini coin purses to my websi...
Hand sewing a coin purse - Slow stitching project - how to attach a metal clasp to a small purse
Переглядів 2343 місяці тому
I’ve been wanting to make some coin purses for ages so was very pleased to get hold of a stash of metal clasps in a charity shop. The process is quite straightforward and I’ve made some of my own templates to go with the clasps I purchased including some appliqué designs which are fun and colourful. In the video I show how to attach one of the purse clasps and also how to stitch one of the litt...
A very relaxing slow stitching project - Yo-yos Suffolk puffs, how I make them & sew them together
Переглядів 2,1 тис.3 місяці тому
These have got to be one of the most relaxing and easy slow stitching hand sewing projects I have ever done! In the video I show how I make them, a couple of steps to make the preparation quicker and how I see them together. I imagine it will take me a very long time to make an actual quilt or throw blanket with them but it’s definitely a stress busting activity to do when trying to unwind of a...
