| Raw edge sampler |
I have made a number of samples demonstrating the art of the
SLOW STITCH.
Experimentation with different dyed fabric and a variety of thread offer another appearance. It has been fun to see the resulting patterns which are achieved by small differences.
This sample was stitched on pre-loved and echo dyed cotton fabric using a hand dyed cotton thread. The result is interesting especially if you squint your eyes and peer at it. Rows of alternate stitching give quite a raised look and the eucalypt leaf shapes can be seen behind the stitching.
