This slow stitching project of Vintage fabric and red Kantha embroidery, has gradually developed into a little red bow. Inspired my the work of Jessie Chorley.

What does a six foot Festive Table Runner look like?
This table runner is on it’s way to my local textile group, as part of their Challenge. I started it a few years ago, and have finally had a reason to complete it.
Finally Finished
The binding was finished recently, then all I needed to do was add the embellishments and the hanging sleeve.

| Applique, quilting and hand stitching all rolled into one ! |
It’s long enough to lay along my long sideboard, or hang on a door!

Christmas
I know it’s a little early to be making Christmas decorations. At least I am ahead of myself for the Festive preparations this year.
Do you have Christmas projects on the go? Share your thoughts below.
A little bit of hand sewing.
Hand sewing, hand embroidery and hand quilting are the most perfect ways of slow stitching. I find it almost meditative. Life slows down and I focus on nothing more that the next stitch.
