258C SLOW STITCH book & stitch art SATURDAY, AUG. 23, 12-6

Join us and put the finishing touch on your slow stitch book. Your workbook will have many types of fabric, including vintage cloth. It will include pockets to keep your supplies at hand. Fabric can be easily removed to work on with or without the provided hoop. When finished with a slow stitch piece you can keep it in your book, frame it, add to a pillow or a scarf, use it as a cover or page in your junk journal (attend a junk journal workshop!) - how else you use it is up to you.  This will become a keepsake for you or maybe a gift for a loved one.   

Workshop: Saturday, August 23.  12:00-6:00.  Fee includes all materials and instruction.  You will leave with your Slow Stitch book with fabric, hoop, and needle to complete many more works of art, and the piece you create during class.

Slow stitching is a mindful and deliberate approach to sewing that focuses on hand stitching at a relaxed pace. It's all about taking your time, enjoying the journey, and savoring each stitch as it comes together to create something beautiful. This art form is the perfect antidote to the rush of our modern lives. What you create can be vintage style or contemporary.

Workshops take place at a home studio just past Evergreen Lake. One small dog will be present and using stairs is necessary.  Workshops are non-refundable. If you need to cancel, give as much notice as possible as we will try and help you fill your seat. If your seat is not filled you will receive materials, and minimal instructions when you pick up your kit at arranged time at Sugar Jones.

Here are a few photos of the Slow Stitch Book and two examples of art you might create during workshop.  Hope you will join us!
