Join me Start to Finish as I create a Slow Stitched Drawstring Bag with lots of extra details - making it an elevated work of art. I show my approach to embellishing a fabric collage, give a tutorial on how to use a template to add mushrooms, add a lining with a special lace detail, and show how to create and insert a drawstring & more. There's loads of detail, inspiration and insight. Come stitch with me and make your own! See the Chapter timestamps below so you can hop around.  Can you name the stitch I use to sew up the edges of the bag? Let me know in the comments! FAQ: -I use 2 strands of the six stranded embroidery floss throughout this project -I use Embroidery needles for stitching and -Milliners needles for French Knots Slow stitching this way is so relaxing because you don’t have to think about following a complex pattern or worry about your stitches being perfect. It’s all about free flowing relaxing creativity. Stitch Along with Me! #slowstitching If you’re looking for more Slow Stitching ideas or projects, check out my other videos linked below.
