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.
 
Enclosed in this large Holiday Slow Stitch Fabric Collage Kit you will find 1 backing fabric piece, heat n bond fusible web, decorative fabrics and trim, text label, embellishments, embroidery floss and a large eyed needle. 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. These kits provide quality fabrics (including ones you will not find ANYWHERE else) with precise cuts.
 
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.
