- Crayons are an inexpensive, easy to aquire, and beautiful art tool for all ages. When we think of crayons, we tend to think of coloring books and paper, but did you know that you can use crayons on fabric?
With a little bit of work, prepping the fabric and then heatsetting the image you can create images to use in stitching projects. Make a custom patch, or create specifically colored images to use in your sewing projects.
Slow stitching is a captivating craft that allows you to immerse yourself in the soothing rhythm of hand-stitching, creating exquisite textile art at your own unhurried pace. In this guide, we will explore the world of slow stitching and provide you with valuable tips and techniques to enhance your "slow stitching" journey.
Understanding the Essence of Slow Stitching
"Slow stitching" is more than just a keyword; it's a mindful and deliberate approach to crafting. This method emphasizes taking your time, enjoying the process, and savoring every stitch. It's about reconnecting with the age-old art of hand embroidery, sashiko, and visible mending. Let's delve deeper into how you can make the most of your slow stitching experience.
Selecting the Right Materials
For successful slow stitching, it's crucial to start with the right materials. Choose fabrics that resonate with your vision, such as soft linens or cozy muslin. When you invest in quality materials, you'll find that the tactile sensation and overall result of your slow stitching project are greatly improved.
Embracing Versatile Stitching Techniques
The versatility of "slow stitching" is one of its greatest strengths. Explore various stitching techniques to bring your creative ideas to life. Whether it's the precision of the backstitch, the simplicity of the running stitch, or the intricate beauty of the chain stitch, each technique offers a unique texture and style to your projects.

The lady who taught me how to quilt, made a quilt this way. She used white cotton fabric squares, and traced simple coloring book pages on them. Then she had her Sunday School kids do the coloring. She heat set the images, added colorful sashing, and quilted it. It was then raffled off in a fundraiser. It's good to learn how simple this is.
What a great idea. I love hearing about how people shared their creative skills and used everyday objects to make something exceptional. Thank you for sharing.
How cool is that? 😎
@@DanielaMellen I was just wondering, if a fabric resist would be a good idea around the images, for kids, or those of us who are less artistically gifted? It would stink to go through all the trouble of prepping the fabric, and have a wayward crayon stroke to ruin the project. I've never worked with a resist, but it sounds promising.
Good question. In that case, I think a stencil or mask would be the best way to go. I'm not familiar with a good resist to use on fabric for crayon use.
Awesome To Hear! Thanks For Sharing This!!
I used to do this drawing my own designs on t-shirts 50 years ago.
( Interesting fact: I ended up with a degree in textile design 😎)
That's awesome! And to think you started out drawing on tees! ❤️
Awesome!!
👍🏾
Very interesting new craft. Thank you
How did they react in the washing machine?
Wonderful video.
Your presentation is great and I live that there is no canned music.
There's too much noise these days.
It was nice just hearing you talk without all the background noise❤
Thank you very much!
I have a quilt that was my Grandma’s that has flowers colored with crayons on muslin with strips of pink cotton between. I’m almost 70, and my Grandma would be 130, so this is a very old quilt! It is one of my beloved treasures! I can tell you that the colors really hold up over time - and gentle wear.
Wow! What a treasure! Thanks for the info on the color and drawing lasting. ❤️ I just love quilts.
So Wonderful To Hear This! What An Amazing Treasure!!
Just reading your comment made me happy. What a treasure. Thank you.
Would love to see a picture.
Your artwork looks like you are an artist! Your pumpkin and flowers are beautiful with the shading! This really makes me want to try this technique!
My mother was a young child in the late 1920’s. Her grandmother brought her muslin scraps from the cotton mill where she worked. Her grandmother then showed her how to take flower designs from the newspaper and trace them onto the fabric. My mother outlined the drawing with a simple stitch in embroidery floss. She then colored in the flowers with crayons. I don’t know the brand. I guess she could have colored them years later. She did not do any shading. I used to enjoy looking at these scraps of fabric with the pretty flowers. When my mother was in her early 70’s, I asked her what she had planned to make with the flowers. She said she had always wanted to make a quilt with green fabric around the blocks. I took them and did just that! I gave it to her for Mother’s Day about 6 months later! She was shocked and overjoyed! She had it on her bed for a while, but it has hung on my wall for about 30 years. I had a good bit of sewing experience, but it was my first quilt. I hand quilted it. It still looks just like it did then.
Would love to see a picture of it? !
That is such an amazing gift! You took your mother’s precious scrap flowers and turned it into a quilt! Omg, she must have been so touched by you taking her work and transforming that into her dream quilt! I love hearing this. ❤️ I’m partial to handmade quilts!!! I think they are an act of love, and it your case, you prove my point. 😊
Such A Wonderful Gift To Make For Her & You're Fortunate Enough To Have That Family Treasure!!
My dear mother taught me this 73 years ago, though she didn’t have any pigment pens! After my first attempts, which she sewed as dresses for my dolls, we did designs on dish towels and on cloths for the dresser tops. It was so much fun! Gosh, l still love the smell of Crayola Crayons! I did it with my kids, too. Sadly, my granddaughter wasn’t interested at all, she couldn’t sit still for activities other than the tv. Ten years after that her little brother couldn’t pay attention to my brief attempt to explain what l had in mind for us, his mind was on his Xbox and VR. So this simply shows that times change, and not always to the benefit of our abilities and skills.
What precious mememories of your mother's art skills! What a treat. So sad to hear that you couldn't pass on those sweet activities. ❤️
It’s how the parents bring them up…
The kids are used to getting things faster. Food, entertainment, and with all the gadgets to play with, it's no wonder no one wants to just sit and do one thing over and over. That's boring maybe to this set of youngsters, but I enjoy coloring. I taught art in middle school and using crayons I squeezed as much creativity from my students as I could. There is no medium better than crayons to express your creativity. Prang was the best brand and I recommend you try them. Colors are more vibrant. Thank you for showing this technique. I can't wait to see what I can do. This is going to be fun.
Sad isn't it?
I've never heard of Prang crayons...and I'm no spring chicken! I've always used Crayola's since childhood. I'll have to check out the colorful Prangs now.@@savethebottle
I’ve done a simplified version of this with 8 year olds to teach embroidery. We trace from a coloring book page, color, iron, and then embellish with stem stitch, back stitch, French knots, etc. we do the embroidery in a hoop then gather the extra fabric from the back and they can hang it up!
That is such a great activity! Thanks for the information about using the coloring book. 😊
Cool Idea For Teaching The Kids!!
I saved all my 6 kids broken crayons and placed them into silicone ice tray shapes in random colors and melted them in mv watching carefully and then toddlers have pretty colors to color with w/o breaking. I've also melted in clean cans before and poured candles with them. Also nice to put them in color chunks into melted clear jar sealing paraffin for chunky candles. Crayons are so much fun! I was overjoyed as a child to get a new box once a year for Christmas!
Crayons bring back so many great memories!
I made my first quilt using coloring books, a mix of cotton and polyester knit fabrics and Crayola Crayons after seeing a episode on a sewing show in 1996. My nephew and later my niece loved that quilt and refused to give it up .... I would periodically refresh the coloring on it to keep it bright every couple of years..... Last time I saw that quilt the knit fabrics had shredded and I had to patch the quilt but the kids would not let me throw it away.
Awww- sounds like a definite favorite! How sweet that you would freshen it up and patch it up! ❤️❤️❤️
Lol. My first quilt was with colouring book too. Only with fabric and embroidery. I wish I had of known this technique
so clever!!I collect crayola crayon tins so I have loads of crayons. I am thinking this would make a fun quilt for our family reunion, I could precut and put wax paper on cloth and have everyone draw or sign in crayon and then make a quilt that has a piece of all my family !
Great idea! ❤️
Thats what I used wax paper then press onto my fabric
What a clever idea for a family!
I made a quilt in the 90’s from my son’s artwork. I ironed freezer paper to the back side to stabilize it. The paper just peels off when you’re done.
That’s a great technique. I showed that in the video on the second piece. I like to give alternatives.
Been looking for a way to hide stains on my clothes because I can't seem to be able to get rid of them. This is gonna be fantastic for this purpose, I was trying with fabric paint but they're not as precise as I'd like. Thanks a bunch !
Good luck! And good idea!
Try Dawn dishwashing liquid first - the original blue Dawn - the other scents/colors aren't as good. 20 years ago, I got 3 huge grease spots on my favorite winter pullover. Spent 3 years only wearing it around the house. Made a Home Depot run which resulted in running out to my parents and my mother was genuinely horrified at my shirt being she is severely OCD regarding stains on clothing. She told me to use Dawn, rinse and scrub under warm water then throw in a normal wash. Now, I weekly check for stain, work Dawn in, let sit one hour and stains come out, occasionally requiring a second treatment. You can even put the Dawn on the stain, toss in hamper and wash days later.
@@cliftonmcnalley8469I Took Swear By My Dawn!!
For oil and grease stains on your shirts you cannot bleach use dawn dish soap just a drop or a swirl over the spot itself will remove all thise popcorn and bacon grease stains
@@cliftonmcnalley84690
So many people seemed to already know this, however, I didn't, so thanks very much for sharing. Looking forward to trying it.
You are so welcome!
Me either!!
My mum has used this for decades to address bleach marks on clothing.
Very clever use!
65 years ago when I was growing up, we used to do this using prang crayons because back then they were made with bees wax which drew smoothly and melted beautifully. Interesting technique using the lower quality crayons we have now. Thanks
Ohhh. I’ll have to try using beeswax! Thanks for the tip.
I did this to as a kid 50 years ago. 😂
I still have prang crayons. Love to use them!
@@sandraclark4707they changed the formula, still high quality but not bees wax for a long time.
I’ve never seen anything like this before. Awesome
I wasn't anticipating the realistic artistry. impressive. Thank you for the tutorial
Thank you.
How refreshing to listen to you instruct so clearly. I didn’t have to hear words like actually, like, to be honest…etc.
Thank you for a lovely tutorial using wax crayons. 💕
Thank you for your comment!
I agree , but I wish she’d learn how to edit!...☺️ there’s only so many times I like watching someone iron!
Wow! I came here for the first time and I’m so impressed! My goodness, what a creation! Beautiful and not expensive!
Thank you ❤
Thank you so much!
I can use crayons rather than paint, so clever! I am adding this technique to my gift making, quilting and slow stitch books ! Thank you, Daniela!
Wonderful! I'm so glad it was helpful! It was a game changer for me!
Loved this technique. My hands are getting shaky as I get older and I might be able to stay in between the lines! Lol.
What is slow stitch book?
I had so much trouble thinking of ways to get color on my plain fabrics... i can't believe i never thought of this. Thank you for sharing!
Glad I could help!
You have just opened up a whole world of crafting possibilities for me with this! Thanks for a great tutorial, I can't wait to buy some crayons and get experimenting
Have fun!
Me too. I am excited.
I love this video so much! I do embroidery, and I've been looking into ways to color-customize my fabric pieces using watercolors, pastels, colored pencils, etc. Your crayon method is a valuable technique to add to my customization tool-kit, thanks so much for sharing!
Thank you!
I always wanted to use my crayons to make my clothes images, and was blown away when I seen this! So simple using an iron instead of an expensive setter for the images. Thanks so much! 🤗❤️👍🏽💯
Glad it was helpful!
We ran a company in the 90's designing quilts using this exact technique. Plain Brown Wrapper was our company name.
Wow! You made custom quilts? I love that.
I transformed an entire queen sized comforter by loading wax on 80 grit sandpaper then transferring with heat from an iron.
Wow! That sounds like a lot of work and so unique! What a treat to have that handmade artwork on a quilt.
Would love to see a picture
This is very cool. ❤
Thank you!
Quilters have been doing this for a very long time using both these methods. You can also use watercolor pencils and markers setting that with textile medium and water 50/50. Then heat set with an iron after drying.
Great tips! Thank you. I have always been in awe of quiliters - both modern day and througout history. Quilting is such a loving, functional, and maternal art. I think it's one of the most underated art forms.
I'm going to use the watercolor pencil idea! Sounds fun.
I love it! The colors of the pumpkin are vibrant and beautiful!
Thank you so much!
I seem to remember doing a drawing and coloring on paper, or coloring a picture and then color side down iron it onto a piece of cloth. It wasn't as vibrant as yours, but you could add layers of color on top. It's a neat way for children to craft and get something with a bit of polish to the drawing. Wish I'd remembered this when I ran Zoo Camp and we painted T-shirts, those always came out so heavy and awkward because the paint was applied with the heavy hand of a child.
That's an interesting technique to paint freezer paper or sandpaper (as some commenters shared) and then adding it to the fabric. And yes, it sounds like a helpful alternative to painting directly on fabric.
❤️
I must say you have one of the most pleasant voices i have ever heard. You should be doing commercials and replace the Alexia voice. But, do not give up your great tutorials. Thank you for sharing your crayola craft.
Wow, thank you! Such kind words made my day!!!
How interesting! Moms all over the world are shuddering, imagining their kids with this but im definitely trying it!
haha! That's true! Glad it sparks your interest.
Never heard of this before. I can’t wait to try it. Thank you 🙏
Thanks for watching!
Thank you Daniela, there were some really great tips in here. I loved how you used the backing papers to keep the fabrics from moving around. Such a fun idea, and pretty cheap and inexpensive tools besides.
Thanks so much! 😊
This is beautiful just the way it’s, but now I’m looking forward to see how you complement the images adding stitches. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you so much!
Thank you for sharing, I can now costumize some of my projects, and something new.
Thank you for your comment-I’m embroidering dishtowels, I will try to color one in with this fabulous technique😁
Hello friend thank you Beauty resulty
Thank you! ❤️
We did something similar to this when I was younger except we coloured our pictures right onto the wax paper and then transferred to fabric with an iron.
That's great. I am hearing that from commenters and think it's wonderful to learn all these methods. Thank you for sharing.
Had no idea it was possible to use crayons on fabric without it bleeding. Can't wait to try this! Thanks for sharing!
Thank you!
I think i love this. I cant listen to your comments because my husband is watching tv and listening to the program. I will play this again after my spouse goes to bed, then im dure i will feel like i NEED to do this. First time i ran into your video. Im sure we will be new best friends.
Welcome!
Such a good technique and tutorial!❤ THANK YOU! I can see using it on pillows.
Great idea!
My mother used to use fabric paint pens to paint pretty pictures on pillow cases. She used the embroidery stencils for the outlines. I think I prefer the crayons.
WoW super nice 👍❤
Thank you so much
Fabtastic tip, I’m going to use it right away! I was wondering how I could make the patterns I need on scraps of white cotton fabric rather than look for and buy several different fabrics, as I’m making Halloween witch dolls and I want to give them striped socks and whatnot!
Great idea! It's a great way to personalize and find the exact fabric/pattern you like.
Thank you again! I love to color! This would be very fun with those old fashion embroidery patterns!!
Great idea!
Exactly what I was thinking!
@@FernCurtis great minds that like to craft must think alike!
Wow! All these 62 years of mine and I never saw this. I was a crayons queen! I melted crayons on my dads furnace and give him a headache. Then I grew up using polychromos by faber castell and then when I made shirts and decorated I used fabric acrylic ain’t. Never did I think crayons could be used. I’m so excited about this. I love the way you use sandpaper for traction and that is a genius thing for many other ideas. I enjoyed your video. You are different. I’m an artist not a crafter and I know there is a big difference. I feel crafters love the mess. Glue guns, drippy paints and tearing paper are their excitement. I’m all into the image. Colored pencils or drawing ink but no mess. I don’t do pastels that are dusty and make my fingers messy. Just art drawings with a variety of clean mediums. I love your video. Clean, understandable and beautiful. I will probably subscribe to you today Sunday October the 8,2023.
Thank you. I appreciate the comment and kind words.❤️
Great instructional video! Thank you for sharing!🥰
Thanks for watching!
I love this... Thank you Daniela for sharing this craft idea.
Glad you like it!
@@DanielaMellen I subscribed to your channel tonight. Looking forward to seeing more of your creativity.
Welcome and thanks so much!
I did this with a Peter Rabit transfer for a baby quilt. Looked like water color just like the books.
Sounds lovely! What a great way to personalize your work!
❤❤❤ Thank you!!! I have always loved crayons, but never explored using them on fabric. I see many applications for your technique, including another way to upcycle/recycle clothing, quilt labels, quilted wall hangings. I’m loving that you reused that paper towel several times. I’m looking forward to getting coloring mojo going. Thank you for sharing an excellently produced video. You were efficient with your time, and the closeups were vital. Also your voice is very pleasant and soothing. I’m a new subscriber. I’m looking forward to looking up older videos as well as future ones. ❤❤❤
Thank you and welcome. I love your ideas!
Je trouve cette idée magique
Hi🙂
Ten years ago when I first started silk painting we were shown a technique where you iron the silk onto the plastic side of the freezer paper and then you apply the silk dyes or silk paints. Once finished you'd either steam the dyes to heat set or iron heat set the paints. My daughter and I named the technique "watercolor".
You could use Derwent's Inktense, but it's a bit more expensive than Crayola Crayons.
Nice technique and cute illustrations 😊
Thanks for sharing!! It sounds like a great technique that would have more "flow" (hence your name, watercolor). And the Inkense would be very elegant.
Love this - thank you, Danuela!
Thank you!
I love this. It's all new. Very beautiful. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks so much 😊
Thanks for sharing very informative 😀
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you for such an inspiring video-never knew! I used to melt crayons in an improvised double boiler & paint the melted wax on small candles, votive lights! Gave them as Christmas gifts😊this video made me subscribe right away!😘
Welcome! And what a cute idea to make custom candles!
Best explain illustration, you made it look so easy.
Thanks. I'll work on a video of a specific process.
Excellent
Thumb Up and subscribed
Thank you! And welcome! 🤗
This is awesome! Didn’t know this could be done.
Thanks!
A good source of images to trace is coloring books. Especially simplified images.
Great tip!
Thank you so much for your video. I was thinking of letting my grandchildren paint with crayons on a tea towel and then keep sending that like you did that would be awesome
That's a great idea!
This is amazing. I watched your video anticipating that I'd never use the technique. I was so wrong! I'm looking forward to trying it. Thank you.
Glad it was helpful!
Could you show examples of how you use these images in slow stitching? Thanks so much! 😃❤️
Great idea!
Outstanding directions and generous sharing of skills. Thank you so much. 😊
So nice of you
What a great craft for children and adults.
It is! Easy to find art supply and endless possibilities!
@@DanielaMellen Thank you
Love this! I'm wondering if you could print out an image on paper (not so good with drawing as you are), color it and then turn it over onto the fabric and transfer the wax that way? You'd have to print a mirror image, though.
Yes you can! I'm working on a follow up video with some of the tips and questions commentors have on this topic. You're idea would work well.
I recall seeing someone doing this a long time ago. I can't believe I forgot about something that is so beautiful. Thank you for bringing it back.❤
You are so welcome!
Wow, those where some beautiful drawings!!
Thank you so much 😀
Cool technique. We have bees wax crayons here "honey sticks"
Cute name!
An original variation of Encaustic Paint Art. 😊
Indeed!
😅i still have a cloth washed many times in the 74 years since I was in preschool and it is clear and bright
That is so good to know! Thanks for sharing that helpful info!
Thank you for the fantastic idea. Your teaching with alot of patience is greatly appreciated! I enjoyed my time here.
Thank you ❤️
Thank so much 🎉... I looked at your video on Sunday, went out on Monday bought some Crayons can't wait to try this technique out... looking forward to your follow up videos. And I am enjoying reading the Comments such inspiring and lovely memories etc ❤ I love Reading Comments 😊
You're selcome and thanks!
Congratulações.
Beautiful work!!! You inspire me!!
Wow, thank you!
When I was 12 years old I used crayons to draw in a piece of fabric, then I used a paper over the drawing and ironed it. Nobody taught me. I'm old now, it was before others did it.
Good thinking!
You are totally new to me, Daniela (you popped up on my feed), but I've subscribed already: partly because this is an awesome technique and I want to see more, but also because your voice is so soothing and pleasant to listen to! I feel my stresses melting away 😅 Thank you, I look forward to checking out more of your videos! TFS, love from London 🇬🇧
Thank you for such kind words! And welcome. ❤
Thank you! I'm looking for fun ideas for my Granddaughters and their friends (11-13 year olds) to do. I'm planning on having "GrannieSaurus" Sleepovers at my house that involve no electronics and computer games, etc.
Cooking, baking, quilting, sewing, plastic canvas, cross-stitch, drawing, ceramics, etc. will be our activities.
I'm also going to bring out the board games, card decks ...
("GrannieSaurus" is the nickname I've been lovingly given by my Granddaughters.)
Wonderful! The GrannieSaurus nickname is adorable! How lucky they are to have you sharing your time and knowledge of all those things. It will give them such a strong basis in activities and give them more confidence. ❤️❤️
@@DanielaMellen thank you.
I've been making crayon quilts for 20+ years.
Fantastic! It’s so helpful to have your input!
I've never heard of this method. Can't wait to try!!
Fanastic!
i like this type of art.
Thanks.
Brilliant idea and the possibilities are endless. Thanks for doing this video. I absolutely love learning a new craft, especially with my fabric
Thank you! 😊
A little boy and my daughter's class I had open heart surgery. I cut squares of white fabric and had the kids draw whatever picture or message they wanted on it with crayons. Then I took all the fabric squares that made quilt.
I never knew that there were such a thing as fabric crayons. I just happened to be looking one day and on the Crayola box they had specific crayons for fabric.
I feel like they are probably the same. I used fabric crayons for quilt but for other things the kids have just grabbed from their crayon carousel.
What a lovely quilt! So kind and a great way to include all the children!
Clever idea
Thanks.
New subscriber! This video came up on UA-cam's feed. I just wanted to say that you are an incredible instructor. I subscribed from your presentation of the material. Thank you for a great video with awesome content. :) You described and answered any questions I might have had plus I enjoyed all specific details. Great job Daniela!!
Welcome aboard! And Thank you for your kind words.
So much potential here excellent, a few years ago I did a freezer paper stencil, and sprinkled multi coloured crayon shavings around the outer edge and pressed it, that t shirt is still going strong. Now you have given me the idea to do a embroidery line design and then fill in with crayon, I'm now thinking t shirts, tote bags, zipper pouches, fabric shoes. Thank you for reminding me of this method. Tip for anyone- if you spill candle wax on your carpet, this is the same way you get it out, paper and hot iron.
Good tip! Your t-shirt sounds beautiful!
I love your technique, I grew up with crayons and it reminds me of all the fun we had! I think I’ll try this one. Thanks Danela
Thanks!
Brilliant!!!! So exciting. Thank you so much for sharing this. My mind is busting with ideas lol
So glad to hear that!!!! Thank you!
I swear by a laundry product called Color Keeper. They are small sheets you toss in the washer to absorb excess dye. I started using them after I learned the hard way a few years ago that the clothes from India that I love are usually over-dyed, and laundering them by themselves one time doesn't necessarily cut it as far as preventing color transfer onto other clothes in the wash during subsequent washes. Anyway, in case I want to be ridiculously cautious the first time I try this cool crayon technique on a t-shirt or anything that would need to be laundered in the future, I'll probably throw in a Color Grabber sheet.
Love that idea! I'll look for the Color Keepers. Thank you!
Thank you! You taught me some basic drawing and adding depth technique as well in this lovely video.
Glad it was helpful!
شئ جميل اننا نستطيع ان نستعمل الوان الشمع بهذه الطريقه شكرا على مشاركتك لنا بهذه الفكره واحب ان اجربها علي المخدات ستكون جميله ❤❤❤
Thank you. ❤️ Yes, Pillows would look lovely using this technique!
@@DanielaMellen
Thank you so much 💓
Ty opens up endless possibilities
Glad it was helpful!
A good idea, thanks for sharing. Laurie
Thanks!
If your country doesn’t have freezer paper, I find in Australia the shiny paper around a ream of copier paper does the same job.
Thanks for the tip!
👍🏻 and subscribed. 🎉🎉🎉
Thanks and Welcome!
What a fantastic tutorial! I really appreciate the way you went to the time and trouble to make it so thorough. That's SO helpful. I love to hand embroider and this technique will be a great addition to future projects! Thanks so much. And BTW, you have such a lovely, pleasant speaking voice!
Glad you found the tutorial helpful and thank you for your kind words 😊
Thankyou so much for sharing this technique. Can't wait to have a go! Kind regards
Have fun! 😊
Def a new skill I just learned. I've seen quilts tht were made like thus. Nvr knew how they did it till now. Gr8 to add to my embroidery projects. Ty so much n all those who commented. U helped me learn. I'm 76. Still lov to learn especially to enhance my projects.
Glad you found it helpful!
