Weekly Slowstitch 2024 - Week One

What I love about this is that it gives me a direction to go in. It’s like a signpost popping up in my complex creative mind, which can sometimes overwhelm me into doing nothing. Thank you for taking the time to do this and share it with us. Community in action!

This is one of my favorite quotes: We are each a thread woven together. We become the fabric of the earth. Let us weave peace. Thank you for a lovely start. I live in Arkansas, USA.

Happy New Year to you all those watching 😊 So excited to see how this evolves! Thank you Kathryn x

Happy New Year Slow Stitching "Community" from Rittenhouse Square, Philadelphia PA. I am thrilled to be a part of this 52 week global stitch along. Thank you immensely to k3n for your gracious time and giving spirit. Laurie

I am glad I found your videos. You are a welcome visitor in my room with your gentle voice and coloured remnants that get turned into yet more softness of fabric that in turn becomes another little wonder of an artfully made item.

Being new to slow stitching and embroidery in general I find this quite calming as well as easily achievable. I’m calling this my “go with the flow” stitching project… I love the way it can be done with no plan. Making impromptu choices as one goes along. I also like the idea that they can be done rather quickly and not linger for days….same reason I prefer granny squares in crocheting…. Yes this will definitely be a great option to fill my spare time! Looking forward to more….thank you for sharing your experience….Happy New Year btw! Wishing EVERYONE the best for the upcoming year!

Beautiful journal and lovely start ❤

'Serious wind' 😅🤣🤭Thank you lovely : )

I've been really looking forward to this! I love watching the number of watches go up when the video has only been up for a few minutes, knowing there are many other keen beans here too!

Hello from Beautiful British Columbia Canada 🇨🇦

Happy New Year Longing to start this project but my stash is packed as I’m waiting to move. I intend to make 52 to turn into needlebooks as gifts for next Christmas for stitching friends.🎉

'Ruckle'. What a lovely word. Not only do I enjoy your happy wittering on, but I find it such a relief after plowing through YouTube looking for something that is not AI speech. Thanks for your inspirational videos on cloth scraps. Makes my heart fair glow! 😊

Invisible basting is a game changer ! I’m working on my boro inspired cover but will keep up with individual pieces weekly. Also I need to go back and see how you put the pages in your journal. I’m really loving your videos 😊❤

I have not done anything like this before but I am recovering from a stroke and trying to get my hands to work again so this feels the ideal project. Thank you so much for taking the time to share this with us. Happy New Year Kathryn and all of our stitching community, from Vera in Ireland ❤

I have been just watching your videos for a few months. You are so inspiring. I love quilting and embroidery, along with many other things. I am going to start this project, and will backtrack to do your others. Thank you so much for sharing your talents with us. I would love to see your pets in the video sometime. Thank you, Kathryn, for brightening our days.

Happy New Year. This will be a fun year with you and our community. ❤

Happy New Year everyone! This is an awesome way to start off the new year.❤️❤️❤️

Such a fun and fresh start to the new year. Thank you and happy 2024 to you ♥️

I look forward to our 52 weeks together. Happy healthy New Year everyone!

Your channel was recommended by an artist friend and today I have just watched 2 weeks worth and subscribed. I will start at January 1 and catch up soon. Happy to find you and I love slow stitching. It is wonderful little bits to do while sitting at the bedside of my totally disabled quadriplegic husband. I can now do 2 things at once that I love. Thank you.
