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

Using a Laying Tool ... in embroidery by Mary Corbet
Happy Weekend All
This is a great little tool to help keep satin stitch nice and even and straight. Mary Corbet shows us how and now I am on the look out for one of these beauties... I hope to be able to purchase one in America in October when we go.
Enjoy the tutorial with a warm cuppa and let the ever lovely Mary Corbet show us how.
I wish I had known about this a few weeks ago when working on something that I am creating, I can tell you, how much easier my life would have been!
As you can see you can get all sorts of lovely laying tools not just plain so I am going to investigate them. I do love beauty but it will have to be functional in this case as well, so I will let you know which one I purchase......
Have a great weekend all and of course Happy Stitching!
