- Hello my crafty friends. I have been asked to do a series on Slow Stitching, I decided we would start small, I’m making a four page book.
I hope you will follow along with me.
Love Bella x - แนวปฏิบัติและการใช้ชีวิต
New subscriber as of just now (12th may 2024), I was directed to this video after searching for slow stitch books, I hope to sew along with you in these videos. And look forward to more stitching fun 😊I live in S..Wales also.
Welcome aboard! Thanks for watching.
Thank you so much Bella I want to make a slow stitch cover for a journal and I never know exactly how to start.Have a wonderful day xx
Thank you for this video! I learned so much.
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you 💐
Everyone refers to “slow stitching “ but I have never heard the phrase even tho I sewed for years. So thank you, Bella, for starting this series, I look forward to a new obsession! ❤
Im so pleased that you’re willing to give it a try. I love it, it will certainly be a new obsession for sure. Have fun xx
Thank you for this series. I'm enjoying your calm and informative way of teaching. It is very relaxing. I'm a little late to the party, but I'm going to follow along on this series !!!
You are so welcome! Thank you for your nice comment. xx
I have done "handwork", as my Grandmother called it, since she taught me to embroider when I was about 10. I love to do cross-stitch and embroidery but am afraid I would drive myself crazy doing slow stitch because there isn't a pattern to follow. I love everything you create though and love watching you do it, so I might just have to give it a go. By the way, Andy is Gi's partner.
Thank you, I did think it must be her hubby. They sound delightful don’t they? Do give the slow stitch a go its a really lovely calming thing to do very good fir stress! Xx
Hello bella, thank you so much for doing this tutorial, I will be following and sewing along for sure. You have already shown me so many new ways in this video alone,.
Aww I’m so pleased, thank you for your lovely comment. I hope you enjoy your slow stitching. Xx
You are an excellent teacher. Finally I can start slow stitching! Thank you so much!
Thank you so much.
It’s hard for me to do this messily. I’m so used to embroidery. I’m going to enjoy this series. I’m also watching Roxy’s series one of a “journal of stitchery” I think this is going to become another obsession.
Hello lovely, you will soon get addicted its such a lovely mindful thing to do its so relaxing. Xx
I'm so enjoying this series been wanting to make a book for quite sometime but wasn't confident enough and with me being a perfectionist at anything I do I can now relax and make a messy book 😀
I'm so glad! Xx
Hi Bella,Pauline here from Mollymook Beach Australia 😎 I just discovered your channel & i will be binge-watching you 😊 So enjoyable to watch & listen to you 😊 You lucky ducky, having a cabinet like that, I'v never visited an Ikea shop .... I I I might do now !!!! TFS XXXX
Lovely video 🥰
Thank you. Xx
Love your covers and your new cabinet! ❤
Thank you!! 😊
I think I might be able to do this! I will definitely give it a try. Looking forward to seeing more of this series and I may have to go back to rewatch a few. Appreciate you taking it slow, I’ve never even used a sewing machine before and the broken one I have may take a while to get fixed. What a lovely cabinet! 🤗❤️
I’m so glad that you’re going to give it a go, i warn you it is addictive but very restful, have fun. Xx
Thank you Bella for sharing with us. Andy is Gi Hubby Bella. Enjoy your weekend.❤
Thank you I guessed as much.
I am so looking forward to this series, thank you for showing us. And you new cabinet is great!
Thank you for watching. Xx
I really enjoyed watching you and your ideas ❤
I absolutely love this series!❤ I am learning so much from you! This looks so addicting!❤ Thank you for starting this series!❤
You are so welcome! ❤❤
So fun to watch and learn from you. Do you leave your basting stitches once you’ve fully stitched the layers in?
I’ll look forward to your series! Love your new cabinet!!
Hi Linda, you could leave them in but in this instance I did remove them. It depends on the look you’re after. Xxx
Thanks for sharing ❤
Wow thank you for this series I’m loving this ❤
I'm so glad! Xx
Thank you Bella for showing this. Looking forward to this series. 💜💜xx
Hi lovely, notice I making two! Xxxx
@@bellascraftystudio yes I did notice lol 😘xx
Hi Bella, I’m loving this series. I think I’m going to have to do some slow stitching. Loving your new cabinet 💝
Hi Christina, how are you keeping, I’m so glad that you’re enjoying the series? Everyone that sees my cabinet loves it, its really well made too, you cant beat IKEA. LOL xxx
@@bellascraftystudio yes it’s a beautiful cabinet. 💕
1st time i have heard it called basting, i have only known it as tacking. Looks lovely so far.
Ahh yes its a seamstress term, I used to make my own clothes. Thank you for watching. Xx
I use hoops to hold the matterial when i slow stitch on them makes it a bit easier
Yes thats a good idea, I like to feel the material in my hand but an excellent idea. Xx
We used to call it a tacking stitch.
🥰😍
Such lovely work Bella thank you for sharing, love those bird stamps are they material?
The bird stamps are on paper then on a square of material that’s why I machine stitched them. They’re in Rachel’s Spring kit I think. Xx
@@bellascraftystudio thank you so much I will take a look 😀
Beautiful stitching🩷
Thank you! 😊
Andy is Gi’s husband. I enjoy her videos too.
Thank you, I thought he must be. Xx
Hi, thankyou for sharing this video, its so beautiful and can't wait to try this. How many threads on your needle do you use for slow stitching?
Hi, if it’s embroidery threads I use three strands, if I use strong cotton thread I use it double. I hope this helps. Xx
@@bellascraftystudio thankyou so much! Love your videos too.
@@lauriefilatoff9514 thank you dear. X
I have a question, can you use fabric basting glue to tack down the fabric?
Yes I think thats a good idea.
Do you use a glue stick to glue tiny pieces of fabric?
You can use a glue stick not much mind, i didn’t, you can invisibly stitch them down or put large tacking stitches then take out at the end.i hope that helps. X
