I love this little pouch and I love the understated colors you chose for the materials. It is so beautiful and functional. It will make a great coin purse. Thank you for sharing the tutorial - I really enjoyed it.♥♥♥
So sorry for your loss. If you have any of his old clothes or fabrics from something of his.... you may be able to try this type of stitching project with those fabrics to make a cofort keepsake.. I used my children's and grandchildren old clothes to make them these... God Bless you and help you through this day. Hugs from Gramcracker in Las Vegas ❤
Sarah, thank you for this. This is what I usually do. While I might have an idea of journal cover or something, the real connection is between me, my stitching and my Self. I have been doing this since I started with needle and thread. It got me though a very emotion laden family Christmas that lasted several days. I used the running stitch and fabric I loved. Thank you again,
Sarah. I really enjoyed this video. I'm 73 years old and have taken up stitching again. I am curious about all things, cultures and traditions. I hibernate in the winter here in Eastern Canada and like to busy my hands with something so I was drawn to a video by a woman in your country, Marion's World is her channel. She recently lost her husband and was using stitchery, painting and cooking to pull her through her days. I really felt her enthusiasm for all the things she would try, she is amazing. As I was a late starter, I wanted to learn stitchery from the start and she had a Stitch Journal series that I decided to try. I absolutely love it. I just buzz along at my own pace, learning as I go. The first stitch she taught was the running stitch. She also likes to let the needle and thread take you where it wants you to go. I ended up doing a spiral. She pointed out that when you do a continuous stitch row on row you get a lovely ripple wave going on. This I found to be true and I absolutely love it. I so loved the Sashiko sample you showed as it had those lovely ripples on it. Thank you for sharing this video. I also find the deep relaxing rhythm you get into when doing this style of stitching. I really love your scrolls. They would make a lovely prayer mat when you are finished with them as well. Gave me an idea. I am in the process of doing my Husif. I'm loving it. I watched your channel on it as well. Really good ideas. There is a Japanese seamstress Yuu Pham (I think she is Japanese) that makes bags and purses and she makes them by hand and decorates the patches with many many flower and leave stitchery. I want to do my Husif with some of her ideas. Sooooo much to learn from and I love it all. Blessings and have a really good day.
Love this idea! I can take small pieces everywhere I go and work on them. With no p!an as to what its going to be, other than a beautiful scroll. Thank you!
I know I could use some restful & mindful stitching right now. Things are so tense here in the U.S. Tomorrow is Stitch in Public Day here and I'm going to be out in a couple places sharing this mentally beneficial art. Thank you, Sarah.❤
1:21 Sarah this is one of my most favorite videos ever! I'm new to slow stitching, have made a few pieces and then started to become interested in sashiko but found it to be too exacting and defeating my purpose for slow stitching to begin with. I came to the decision myself that I would just do pieces with a simple running stitch solely for the purpose of meditation and so this video has come at a perfect perfect time. I love what you do, I love how you do it and how you inspire so many of us. Thank you thank you
Sarah thank you for reminding me that I don’t have to always have a plan or worry about a design. My son was murdered in 2023 and I’ve lost my mojo. I do enjoy working with my hands. I’ve been crocheting blankets and making rag quilts. I love embroidery and I have some ties of my sons I could just meditate and relax my mind
I hope that your stitching allows your mind to go anywhere that gives a respite from the pain--however short that respite will be. Sarah has given us something to think about and your sharing reminds me that slow stitching can be restorative.
Lovely pieces Sarah and it is nice to stop and don't think 😊 I really like the seed stitch in a row, thankyou x I am attempting a Kawandi quilt and it very nice to stitch :)
I enjoy making these scrolls. I use them as patches and add them to jackets, jeans, and other clothing, and I really enjoy being able to wear them and show them off!
Thank you Sarah !! You are the one who got me hooked on slow stitching when you did your very first slow stitch video quite a while ago. And I have watched all of your slow stitch videos and always enjoy them. My favorite thing to do at the moment, is these meditation scrolls using just the running stitch. So this video is right up my alley !!! Love it.
Meditation scrolls and also Kantha quilts are two projects that I'm going to try this year. Thank you for the inspiration, Sarah! Give some pets to Ginger cat for me, please 🥰
Thanks Sarah. This was a lovely way to see the differences between meditation and slow stitching work. The added piece about a sensory piece a bonus. I do both types of scrolls and in my head a scroll needed a bobbin … oh how funny. Yup you pulled me out of that rabbit hole. Simply roll and tie. Love it!
Hello Sarah. I really love this (and all of your videos). You showed a fabric that you eco dyed leaves on that was beautiful. Do you have a video showing how you dyed the fabric and more info on the process?
Sarah, you are an inspiration, and you are magic!! I was sitting here watching you and wishing that you would show us how to make that tiny little knot that you make by wrapping it around the needle, I’ve never seen you do it up close and even as I’m having the thought , you stop and demonstrate how to make one with the camera focus tight ! That’s magical. Thank you! And thank you for the lovely therapy too! You have taught me how to do embroidery, and you have really helped me through a lot of rough days. Love you, Sarah!
Lovely, Sarah. I especially like your ecoprint leaves. Having got told off for posting a finished stumpwork box in a Facebook group because the mod said it wasn't "needle and thread", just goes to show: board, glass, leaves - isn't multimedia pleasing!
Another case of two nations divided by a single language! I think what’s known as calico in the UK is known as muslin in America, and what we call muslin is known as butter muslin in the USA. Hope this helps!
I love this little pouch and I love the understated colors you chose for the materials. It is so beautiful and functional. It will make a great coin purse. Thank you for sharing the tutorial - I really enjoyed it.♥♥♥
What a great idea! I have so many scraps and I think even looking at the beautiful colors and prints can be uplifting!
Such a good reminder that the act of applying stitch to fabric can be meditative and soothing to the soul. Thanks Sarah👏👏
Thank you Sarah. It’s the 30th anniversary of my son’s death on Monday. (He was 13) and as I’ll be on my own this is perfect to do. X
Thinking of you, dear one.
Oh I’m so sorry to hear that. Hope you have a peaceful day remembering him ❤️xx

Thank you ladies. It means a lot x
Dear Andrea, may your God-sent "angel" comfort you. I believe.
Thanks, Sarah. 👍 Carol

Oh…so that’s why our embroidery guild has all day stitching event going on over at JoAnne fabric.👍

Thank you. I have a piece of my mothers quilt top she pieced not quilted. It will be nice to meditate stitch on it.
Lovely pieces Sarah and it is nice to stop and don't think 😊 I really like the seed stitch in a row, thankyou x I am attempting a Kawandi quilt and it very nice to stitch :)
Aaah….and relax …how lovely to just pick up thread and fabric and simply stitch away- a wonderful idea Sarah I very much liked this one- thank you 😻
Thank you Sarah - another goodie 😊
Thank you for another great video 😊
Just what I need thank you Sarah! 😊
The tea-dyed fabric looks very steampunk. It would look great with gold thread or small piece that looks like a clock or clock numbers. Fantastic!
I enjoy making these scrolls. I use them as patches and add them to jackets, jeans, and other clothing, and I really enjoy being able to wear them and show them off!
How delightful! You are a joy, thank you!
This is just what I need at the moment
Dankjewel Sarah, ik vindt het nog best moeilijk om al die steekjes op een grote te maken. maar zo mooi bij u.

At last someone who understands how i feel❤
I just ❤ Sarah. ((())). Nice to date work as can be like a coded diary, memories flooding back.
This is lovely

Fantastic. I've done meditation scrolls but was complicated. I love the simplicity. It does focus you our mind and is incredibly enjoyable ❤
I love meditative stitching. I haven't done it for a while. This video has inspired me. Thank you
Thanks sarah
I love the tumbling seed stitches with the fading leaves.
I find stitching very therapeutic great for my wellbeing. Love this ❤
Thank you Sarah... always looking forward to your Friday's video.... snowing heavily outside at the moment... so relaxing
This was an interesting video - thank you!

So fun! I had a giggle because I hadn’t noticed your cat right away 😻
Que maravilla poderla oír en español😊❤❤❤❤ Saludos desde Colombia
I remember my mum's saree quilts ❤❤. She is know more.
I love the vine leaf fabric! Do you have a tutorial on the process? I live in wine country and would love to try (when the vines have leaves again)
Thread "you get cross with". 🤣🤣 we do subject ourselves to naughty threads, don't we?
Love your techniques. What needle do you use? Did I miss that part?
Lovely, Sarah. I especially like your ecoprint leaves. Having got told off for posting a finished stumpwork box in a Facebook group because the mod said it wasn't "needle and thread", just goes to show: board, glass, leaves - isn't multimedia pleasing!
More eco-dyeing, please Sarah

Is calico the same as muslim fabric? I can’t find any calico in the US.
Another case of two nations divided by a single language! I think what’s known as calico in the UK is known as muslin in America, and what we call muslin is known as butter muslin in the USA. Hope this helps!
