How To Make Slow Stitched Art Using Small Fabric Scraps

If you’re like me, you have buckets full of small scrap fabric sitting around waiting to be used. They can be used to stuff pin cushions and other fabric items, but we can also use them in our slow stitching projects.
I have used some of my small fabric scraps in this project.
I forgot to add it to the video but the felt is 3.5”x3.5”.

On occasion, I’ll show you how to do fabric appliqué, and needle turn appliqué.
Many of my pieces are great slow stitching for beginners. If you haven’t tried stitching before, I hope you feel inspired after watching my videos and give it a try!

Watching you putting all the beautiful stitches in your little pictures I think the penny has dropped, I haven’t been sewing enough stitches 😮😂💖💖💖

[@cookingjennfer]

On the small pieces it helps hold all the fabric down. Sometimes when I make bigger ones I don’t use as many stitches.

[@artistgrly]

Another marvelous piece of art!! Hugs ❤

[@atwoodwoman]

Right? I have the same feeling. So inspiring!!

[@lorenericksen916]

I am amazed! This relieves me from my perfectionistic tendencies.

[@cookingjennfer]

Thank you! Sometimes it good to go abstract. 😉

[@atwoodwoman]

I’m running out of new ways to complement you! Absolutely brilliant and inspiring!!

[@diyallthings]

I know right!!!!! 😊
Sometimes I find myself just saying “Nice!!!”

[@cookingjennfer]

Wow, thank you!

[@gramlib]

So I have just finished the first part of my very first slow stitching thing, whatever these things are..... I've watched countless videos and tried so many times but my scraps just never looked good together. So today I decided to just go for it, not worry about how they look, and now they're basted down, and this is a major success. Thanks to this video. I can sew, embroider, do sashiko, etc., but this part eluded me. YAY!! I'm on my way now!! ❤

[@cookingjennfer]

That’s wonderful! Just go for it. Sometimes I’m surprised by how well odd pieces of fabric work out.

Hi Jenny, I found your channel this morning, and I am so excited. This is exactly what I want to do. I have always been a sewer, in fact I taught many workshops in. my time. Now I am approaching 80 years old, and want to do something more relaxing. Thank you for your beautiful ideas. Are you in the UK? Warm wishes, Joan. 🥰

[@cookingjennfer]

Thanks for watching! I hope you’re enjoying stitching. I’m in Canada. 🇨🇦

I love the beads ❤where did you get them ?

[@cookingjennfer]

John Bead but they are local to me. I have also seen them at Michaels but I can’t remember the brand. They’re called superduo.

[@DIY_weekend]

Nice and cute stitching ❤😊

[@cookingjennfer]

Thank you! 😊

[@tracycook7355]

What do you do with all the pieces once made ? I was thinking they would make great cards if I tried it. So going to set up a slow stitching box thank you

[@cookingjennfer]

You could certainly use them to make cards! When I have 8 or 10 pages complete I’ll make a book.

[@diyallthings]

For the first time I realize how sharp your scissors need to be .

[@cookingjennfer]

😆

[@shirleymiller9267]

When do you remove your basting stitches? Thamks

[@cookingjennfer]

Whenever I feel like all the pieces are secure enough if they’re getting in my way. Or sometimes at the end.

[@marilynsepich6324]

The templates you have included are helpful to me.
Is there a way to print those.
Thank you. I'm a newbie 😊

[@cookingjennfer]

Which template? The circle? You would have to buy one. It’s made of plastic like a ruler. You can get them online. ☺️

[@brendadeveau8852]

😍😍👏🏻👏🏻👍👍

[@cookingjennfer]

😊

[@atwoodwoman]

What other kind of sewing do you do to have these scraps? Asking for a friend. ❤

[@cookingjennfer]

They’re the bits I saved from fabric used in other stitching projects. I also used to sew cloth dolls and animals, pin cushions, ornaments. Mostly things on the machine. Scraps pile up after awhile.

[@donnadees1971]

Too much for such a tiny square

[@cookingjennfer]

I think it looks great. I love it.
