Slow stitch scrap fabric patchwork sunflower tutorial

Get into slow stitching with this easy to follow example of how to slow stitch a flower made from remnants from your stash. Creat a patchwork effect using old pieces of fabric and turn them into a sunflower which can be used on clothes, accessories or journals or simply enjoy the act of creating.
Slow stitching is a mindful approach to hand sewing that emphasizes the process over the product. 1 It's about enjoying the act of stitching and using it as a form of creative self-expression and relaxation.
In this tutorial I will guide you step by step, from choosing your fabrics, laying out your flower to what stitches to use. Watch as I develop the idea along the way!

I like hearing your thought process as you're planning-on-the-go. I think your final additions of straight stitches really bring the flower to life, and of course your tiny croissant bee is adorable!

@@Niftyknits Thank you, I think if you don't know where to start it can be useful having someone talk through their process. 🐝

[@Niftyknits]

@@EverSewRosie yes! otherwise it's tempting to imagine that everyone else just knows automatically what to do, where to start.

[@EverSewRosie]

@@Niftyknits Yes, very easy to tell yourself you wouldn't be able to do something ☺️
