Take time to slow down and stitch with this lovely slow stitch kit! Whether you're new to sewing, or an experienced seamstress, this kit is excellent for working on in spare moments, on the go, during a long, restful evening, or whenever you can find the time! Work on it inside on a cozy, rainy day with a cup of tea, or take it out on the porch on a sunny afternoon and enjoy the process of restful stitching! Slow stitching is more about the process and less about perfection, so instructions and tutorials are laid aside, letting you work slowly and creatively. This lovely, homey slow stitch kit includes everything you need to get started sewing: a 12" × 12" piece of muslin for the base of the project, over 25 pieces of fabric - some vintage, and some new - 5 different colors of embroidery thread, and a needle. Pictured is a sample item, and is only an example of what you may get in your slow stitch kit. The contents may vary based on what I have in stock at the time, but will all be the same color scheme.

Well, gentle readers.. I took a few photos of the pieces that I am still working on for my Slow Stitch String Book Black Bean dyed cotton with bleached and over dyed sari silk. which we will make on the next video.. Tea dyed and stitched cotton textile one more video and then we are taking our summer vacation.. Tea dyed Khadi paper stitched with mono printed fabric We had planned a trip to visit family to celebrate a birthday, but that was cancelled.. due to Covid.. so very much has changed.. but stitching hasn't changed.. I can still rely on it for it's curative repairs.. Caterina Giglio, mixed media, slow stitching. stitching, centers me.. as the needle marries paper and fabrics.. creating a path all its own. moving gently on .. with no concern of where that pathway leads.. the piece, or me.. I loose my attachments and just focus on this present moment.. my breath, a sip of tea.. and I make space for the the wonky and wabi sabi.. in myself and in my work. A little string book will be perfect for imperfect pages and will allow them to be worked on time and time again.. See you next week my dear readers.. be well and as always, thank you.. Ciao, Ciao!
