    Well I never thought I’d ever be doing any thing like this….but here I am and loving it! I’m a Londoner who doesn’t like the dark winter evenings. So this is how I occupy my time in the later part of the day. I’m absolutely loving your videos with all these beautiful ideas. Thank you so much Sarah. 🌸

    Thank you, after weeks of pinning up pieces and moving them around and around, I’m ready to stitch. My piece is a wall hanging, a very large one. I discovered diluted bleach in a spray bottle on the sky and am thrilled with the results. Debating whether to sew over it or just along the edges and leaving it as is. Maybe stitch it so it doesn’t show? It’s a landscape, mountains, ocean and beach, with majority of the sewing on the bottom half.

    You look beautiful in your bling today, Sarah... pretty blouse and those lovely long earrings! I am currently working on my first slow stitching project, which is challenging the perfectionist side of me. I resisted for a long time, thinking I wouldn't like it, but I have to admit that I am enjoying the tactile feel of it as I add more stitches through the layers of fabric. I have been thinking about adding some beads so it was nice to see how you incorporated them into your projects. Your potted lace flowers are adorable and I like the idea of using felt as your backing fabric. Thank you for another great and timely video!

It is exactly the stitch that has been missing from my slow stitching repertoire. I had some linen that was fraying in my last slow stitch experiment and I used the blanket stitch to control it. And that was fine. But I love the look of the open satin stitch. I will give that a try on my next piece. And... I must say.... I love slow stitching. Thank you for introducing me to it with your "what is slow stitching" video. I am addicted.
