Six Months of Stitch Journaling

 As I mentioned in my last post, I am starting to run low on the threads and fabrics that I am using for my Stitch Journal. Also the spool is rather full so I have stopped here at the end of June and am making a start on something new in July. So here are some tadah pictures!

First up my stitches for June.




A nice full spool


All 90" x 5"



And safely tucked away in it's little envelope bag




And the bag incase you missed my last post.



All fabrics (recycled clothing mostly) threads and laces solar dyed using plant material and kitchen waste from our home in France.

This has been such a lovely project to work on, it sits nicely in the hand to work on and rolls up into a small treasure - 6 months of time recorded in stitch.

Thank you for following along and your lovely comments along the way.

  9. That is beautiful. What do you do with your stitch journals once you decide they are complete? Tuck them away safely? Display them some how? Pull them out to reference or stroke them occasionally? Just curious.

  10. So many beautiful stitches you worked on and now the little spool is safely tucked away in it's own envelope.
