What happens if you combine Slow Stitching and Victorian Crazy Quilting? A mini Scroll with amazing colour and texture! In this step by step tutorial I create a fabric collage, add all kinds of trims, cording, lace and ribbons and couch them down, use a template to add a bird, stitch a spider web and add lots of colourful decorative stitches. Join me to create a mini scroll full of crazy color and texture. #slowstitching
