Slowstitch needle booklet, made from thrifted and real folklore textiles

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

Hi lovelies,
I said I was going to fill up my sewing basket slowly, who was I kidding…….
I can’t stop slow stitching and used some real folklore fabrics from my own province Friesland in the Netherlands.
Also used a gift from my Dutch friend Maia, you can find her here:
/ valkennestblogspot
And on Instagram: hetvalkennestbl...
If you would like to see more slow stitching video’s and needle booklets by me:
• Slow stitching
Thank you so much for stopping by and I hope to see you again soon
Hugs
Maud

    Hello Maud, my name is Judy and I live in Brisbane, Australia. I am 78years and not so well. I love your little needle case. I have made several cases and I embroidered them on the front. I only have one left because I sold them. At the moment I'm interested in slow-stitching. I love to watch other people sewing by hand. My mother was a dressmaker. She started a business when she was young, sewing baby clothes. Your craft room is amazing. You are so tidy. You are very talented. The fairies are lovely. I wrote a Christmas story which has some fairies and Angels in it. I wish you well. Stay safe.

    Maud this video is simply wonderful. It gave me such joy to watch you make your tiny needle book. The slow stitching for me was a therapeutic memory of years past, stitching embroidery pieces. The sewing basket that you are refurbishing is a perfect size for your travels. I sense, as you do, a need to get out into the world to connect our hearts with natural elements once again. Make whatever videos bring you joy. I watch them for much more than journaling techniques. You instill peace and happiness in my soul. I yearn for the creative spirit to flood back to me as it was before the pandemic. Your videos are helping me and others I am sure get motivated and inspired to make beautiful things once again. I appreciate anything that you want to share in whatever medium. Stitching, doll making, journal making, mixed media, painting... I love it all and will consider myself fortunate to watch your creative mind at work. Thank you for reaching out to the art community and sharing what makes you happy.

    Wow Maud you did all off this slow stitching and I loved to watch it…my fingers are itching to make myself a needle book, I also loved the felt one you made in another tutorial. I surely don’t mind you cutting up that little embroidery work I gave you, I am very honored you used her and take her with you in your camper van. You used it very well and I am glad it inspired you to make this wonderful needle book. I also loved to see what you bought by Hema, didn’t know they had embroidery needles. I bought two new embroidery die sets at the Action yesterday realy cute so I will get that needle set too….not that I haven’t any needles😚 but always nice to have more😂 Thank you for using my gift thank you for inspiring, thank you for this great video. Have a nice sunday ! Big hugs Maia😘

    Put a lovely little needle. I made one for myself a while back mines made with a little square of quilted material where I was practicing quilting on the machine and it didn't go too hot. And then my pages are two pieces of cotton sewing together by machine with a pretty Stitch around the edge and a pretty ribbon two times shut and I also put a pocket on the inside covers. It is very handy. I had another half of that square of quilted fabric so I have made my daughter one also
