Pt2: Big slow stitch flower bowl for

- I’m having lots of fun with the Roxy’s Journal of Stitchery prompt for the month of June which is to create a slow stitch vessel or bowl. #Roxysjournslofstitchery
In this video I’m going to share how I’m finishing and stitching together my lflower shaped hexagon bowl or vessel featuring thread painted scenes from the famous Australia children’s book Snuggle Pot and Cuddlepie.
I’ll also share a reading of the second half of the Snugglepot and Cuddlepie story.
I came up with my own idea for a shape that features a square shape for the base and then flares out from there using English paper piece style hexagons. But the method I create my hexies is very easy and features a felt shape centre that makes it very easy to glue baste the hexagons.
It’s a joy thread painting the little gum anc blossom clothed gumnut babies.
Let me know how you think I went!
With thanks to Sarah @roxycreationsbysarah and Rachel @roxycreations679 for hosting this fabulous community and project.
I hope you enjoy following along with this idea and tutorial to make an easy slow stitch bowl, container or vessel.
Here’s a link to the first part of tho project and the first part of the story:

Beautiful bowl Christine, that will bring a smile as you stitch!
Thank you Kerri - it most definitely will 🤗
Cuddly, snuggly bowl of cuteness!
Thank you Linda - can’t help but smile when using the bowl 🤗
I love that edging stitch, it does give a lovely rustic/homely feel. It reminds me of the blankets I had as a child (back in the 70s and early 80s!) that were all edged with that blanket stitch.
The finished bowl is beautiful. Does it balance well when it’s filled with bits? The warm green and yellow tones are very welcoming.
The idea of being cloned from embroidery stabbings is a fascinating idea. Could be good for sci fi stories! And yeah, we do these things because we love to create. I doubt that drive will ever entirely disappear from humanity!
Thank you - I’m using the bowl to hold supplies for my next project (threads, scraps, buttons) and it’s working great. My mini little bowl sits well inside it too. And it would make a great sci fi story too! Cheers, Christine
I always loved story time
Thanks Judy - glad you enjoyed (not sure why the uploading process changed the sound quality a bit) 💙🧵🪡
Thank you Christine for your video and sharing this wonderful story. So glad to hear Mr Frog made it after all. Reminds me of Tales from the Riverbank or Mr Toad which we had in the UK. This bowl is amazing and will be such a lovely addition in your craft room. I stitched along with you just as if we were sitting together at your table. We had a great stitchy do!!
So happy to know you were joining me in my stitchy do 😆 and that your heard the end of the story 💛
Your bowl turned out lovely, Christine. The fabric is perfect! I so enjoyed hearing the rest of Snugglepot and Cuddlepie’s adventures! TFS! 🥰 Becca
Thanks Becca 🤗
Ah your bowl turned out so pretty and it will be very handy on your desk too - as you said, we do these things for the joy of creating, but it's wonderful when we end up with something beautiful and useful too isn't it. hehe love the idea of all us makers being cloned in the future from all the DNA we add to our creations, that would make a great sci-fi series! Thank you for the ispiration and the storytime xo
Thanks Annie - we’ll definitely have plenty of DNA left behind in our stitched pieces 🤗
Love the fabric stitching each piece a work of art in itself beautiful
Thank you Carol - it’s a lovely effect 💚
Loved the bowl and the fun story!
Thank you Kim 💙🧵🪡
Very cute bowl - and I enjoyed the story. Have a wonderful start into your new week. 🪡🫖📚☕🍀
Thank you Hilde - I hope you’re having a lovely week 🤗
Adorable! I like that it’s got the shape around the top edge too.
Thanks Martha - it really looks like a flower blossom to me in shape
Came out beautifully! Love the story! Great job!👏🥰
Thanks Elizabeth 🤗
Loved hearing these stories - so interesting! And I love how your bowl turned out!❤❤
Thanks Betty 🤗
Thank you so much!! I can't wait to see what you sent. You're so thoughtful 💓
Enjoy my friend xx
Thank you Christine for the story and sharing the making of your bowl which turned out looking lovely. I’m on my second vessel as our daughter asked for one when she noticed mine . I’m using some of the fabrics you sent me . xxx
Thank you Pat - and happy you and finding good uses for some of my gifts 🤗
Ciao Christine, your bowl is exquisite! I made one with hexagons, too,but at the end of my stitching it laid flat😂so I thought of threading a ribbon around the edge and it worked for me,it gives me joy,as you say,each time I look at it. Thank you for the story and for the constant inspiration ❤
Ah yes, that’s why I had to go with the square base. But great idea for your bowl to use a ribbon. I love how inventive everyone is 🤗
Beautiful bowl and very useful ❤
Thank you Karen 🤗
Really enjoyed listening to the story , hope you will read some more another time .
Also your bowl looks stunning ,you must be pleased with the result ❤xx
Thanks Gillian - unfortunately the TH-cam upload altered the sound of the reading a bit but glad you enjoyed 🤗
Adorable ❤
Thank you Rhonda 🤗
Hi Christine you've done it once again! You've created a beautiful piece of art! I love the blanket stitch around the edges, i don't know how you get your stitches so evenly spaced. I hope that i can get mine somewhat evenly spaced. I've chosen the fabric and will get it cut out tomorrow. Thank you for finishing the story of snugglepot and cuddlepie! It's such a cute story, i kind of feel sad that I didn't have them as childhood friends! lol😅 TFS 😊
Thanks Kim - really look forward to seeing yours. With the blanket stitching I find it easiest to come from back to the front - not sure if that makes a difference. Hope you have a lovely weekend xx
@createandcraftwithchristine thanks for the tip! I had to go to town today and it completely wiped me out. I might not get started till tomorrow now. But, I'll remember the tip! TFS
@@kimberleymaloy1728 rest up and the stitching will be ready when you are. Hope you’re feeling revived soon xx
Hi Christine. Your bowl is so cute. I enjoyed hearing the story. Maybe you should start reading a story every time you do a video. Stitching and Reading with Christine. I think that sounds good. What do you think? Hugs ❤️🙂
Thanks Linda - glad you enjoyed despite the slightly challenging sound quality (not sure why it didn’t upload as it was recorded, a bit of sound quality loss). Cheers, Christine
👍🧡
Many thanks Anita - have a lovely weekend 🤗
Oh I loved watching you work and listening to the wonderful story, I have actually never read this one. Thanks Christine. Can I ask what are you grew up in? You seem very familiar to me
Hi Leanne - I’m glad you enjoyed this video. I grew up around Malvern/East Malvern. I don’t recognise your name but it can be a very small world 🤗
@@createandcraftwithchristine lol not even the same state, well now I can stop wondering every time I watch one of your videos lol
