In this video I share how I store by threads and yarns in my craft room or studio for ease of access for this project. I also show how to do a pinwheel or spiderweb decorative stitch to create a fascinating circle or oval that is particularly effective with variegated thread. I also share kantha stitching as a stitch to link two pieces of fabric collage together as well as how you can add cross stitched to create a border for an area.
After all of the excitement, inspiration and joy of the Fleur Woods Textile and Fibre Art Retreat I couldn’t resist continuing to create and draw on the energy from the retreat.
It was such an incredible week with Fleur Woods fibre artist extraordinaire at the beautiful Green Door studios hosted by Zoe Wood. #slowstitching #artretreat
In this video I share continuing work on my textile and slow stitch collage piece that I will be progressively slow stitching heavily with lots of different stitches in differing combinations and using a variety of yarns, threads and wools.
I have added laces and doilies that I vibrantly coloured with Derwent Inktense blocks while at the Fleur Woods Retreat at Green Door studio’s.
I hope this continues to provide you with inspiration.
Be sure to check out videos from fellow slow stitching creatives including Sally from@DottyBeeVintage , Kristy from @SewbitsKristy and Annie from @artyfartyannie
Cheers,
