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

Collection of Redwork Embroidery
Happy Bank Holiday Weekend. Well as you know I am in Devon and having a fabulous time.
I wanted to show you all this little film from Stitching Cow and show you Redwork Embroidery, I think it is lovely and I have done some for me personally. I design and draw what I would like to do and then stitch it in red thread.
It is a lovely thing to do for samplers or indeed quilt squares too. Also I have stitched cross stitch redwork as well. I saw a pattern I liked and bought it and have stitched it and put it away for our impending move .... when we see a house we like, come on Estate Agents send our perfect
one through!! ... too excited and want to go yesterday!! This is the one stitched and is part of a series of red hearts I would like to stitch ...
I hope you are all having a great weekend. I will be back on Tuesday as it is Bank Holiday Monday and I am going to have some time off to enjoy Devon.
Enjoy!

I have always been fascinated by redwork. I would quite fancy making a redwork quilt with stitched squares and red fabric. I once cross-stitched a redwork sampler for my friend Jan Eaton.

I love red work and have a quilt pattern for red birds stitched on it but not got round to stitching it as of yet.
