Slow stitch evolved from ancient textile and needlework traditions. It is currently in use as a way to relax and enter a mindful state while crafting as opposed to worrying about the outcome (though it is nice to have an attractive result.) All stitching is done by hand. This kit is appropriate for beginning slow stitchers on up.
This large Fairies-C Slow Stitch Fabric Collage Kit features reproduction fabric of charming images by the renowned Victorian illustrator Cicely Mary Barker along with multiple quilt shop quality fabric pieces. Please choose your fairy illustration at checkout. (Please note Fumitory is sold out.) Also included are lots of goodies (embellishments), many vintage, for you to use in your project. This kit is appropriate for beginning stitchers on up.
Enclosed in this Victorian vintage fairy slow stitch kit you will find 1 backing fabric piece, heat n bond fusible web, decorative fabrics and trim, embellishments (some vintage, some new), embroidery floss, a large eyed sewing needle and one large fabric piece of a fairy and flower illustration. Everything you need to create a 12 x 12 project or (even better?) a number of smaller ones. There are only minimal suggestions (no instructions) included as you are free to arrange the fabrics however your creativity inspires you. This kit provides quilt shop quality fabrics with coordinating embellishments.
If you prefer I can send you the same kit minus the fusible and needle. This costs a dollar less and is perfect for many crafters. Select "Basic Kit" at checkout.
