Welcome to a slow stitcher and vintage lovers blog where all things are possible and whimsical. Creating is in my soul and so is treasure hunting for gorgeous old fabrics, buttons, linens & threads. There is something about truffling at vintage fairs for beautiful haberdashery and fabric. I adore the seasons, the hygge & cosy of Winter, the awakening of Spring, the changes of colours and crunching of leaves in Autumn and the bees, butterflies and ocean sounds of Summer. Enjoy XX

Checkered or Alternating Chain Stitch
Good Morning
The stitch of the week is a chain stitch but with a difference having two colours. I thought is a great tutorial from Mary Corbett. Her videos are so easy to watch.
I think this is a great stitch to learn and will be giving a multi coloured one a go......
Look what you can achieve with it, again great for paisleys....
There are lots of different stitches here put together, but the checkered chain stitch is a great outline stitch!
Happy Weekend and Happy Stitching!
