Having so much fun with this Roxy’s Journal of Stitchery trifold pouch project for volume 5.
Have loved creating this French secret garden inspired trifold pouch and on this video I will be sharing how I’m creating a little pocket for my embroidery scissors using a piece of vintage appliqué and a vintage French button featuring a rise growing up a trellis.
The pocket will also hold a needle keep and I share how I’m creating this from a piece of old quilt and one of my favourite edging stitches.
I also share my plans for a secret key from the dear grandpa’s antique key collection.
Then on to thread painting of the roses on the interior picket using Appleton wool. I share how I work on the curved edges of petals.
The pouch also features the I rage style fabric covered buttons I created in my video here:
• DIY easy no kit fabric...
And here’s a link to the playlist that includes earlier work on this pouch: • Roxy’s Journal of Stit...
Heye’s a link to the final video where I finish the pouch: • Roxy’s Journal of Stit...
I hope you find this slow stitching tutorial relaxing to watch and providing lots of inspiration for creating your own bespoke slow stitch pouch.
With thanks to Rachel ‪@roxycreations679‬ and Sarah ‪@roxycreationsbysarah‬ for this fabulous project! And Juju too 🤗
Let me know ‪@christinacreatesau‬ if the little appliqué that I’ using fif the scissor pouch came from you 🤗
Cheers,
Christine

Hi Christine. Hope you are well. Your stitching is beautiful. I love the extra features you’re adding to your pouch. I’m having a subscriber appreciation giveaway over on my channel. It’s open to everyone so be sure to go over and enter. Hugs 💕❤️❤️

Happy to have brought some enjoyment to your chores. You frequently keep me company during craft room tidying and sorting, abd of course crafting. Cheers, Christine

Your pouch looks so beautiful Christine, love your extra pockets, you can never have too many imho and especially love the sweet idea of using your Grandpa's key as a closure, definitely copying that idea :) Glad to hear Alex is home and all went smoothly xo

@createandcraftwithchristine 8 месяцев назад

Thanks Annie - I’ve worked out a great approach for the key. A viewer suggested coating with clear Matt medium which I have done (to avoid rust transferable and I’ve attached it to the lower pouch on the diagonal with a little beaded elasticised loop that hooks over the bottom of the key (from a detachable decorative bra strap of all things from my bits and pieces box). Cheers, Christine

Yes it was from me, and I agree, I thought it must have been for cutlery. What a cute way to use it. Happy, happy mail :)

Such a beautiful pouch and I love the design. Thank you for the close up of how you do your thread painting. Definitely going to give it a try the next time I work on flowers. Thank you for giving us an update on Alex. You both have been in my good thoughts. Hope Alex has the speediest of recoveries.

Love the idea of adding an inner pouch to hold sewing supplies- will have to explore the possibilities of putting in a pocket.

@createandcraftwithchristine 8 месяцев назад

Thanks Elizabeth - have fun experimenting and stitching 💙🧵🪡 cheers, Christine

@kimberleymaloy1728 8 месяцев назад

Love this pouch and I absolutely adore the fact that you are using one of your grandfather's keys! It's going to make an excellent closure! 😊

@createandcraftwithchristine 8 месяцев назад

Thank you my dear - I love having my nanna and grandpa close by in little memory prompts 💙🧵🪡 I hope you’re doing well and you’re continuing to feel the pull of the thread to return to your slow stitching - but all in its own time too. Big love 💛

Love how your pouch is coming out, where did you buy the pink and white lace on the back side?

@createandcraftwithchristine 8 месяцев назад

Thank you Nellie - I’m trying to rack my brain where I got that lace. It may have been an op shop or possibly from Pitt Trading in Sydney as I got a box of goodies from there filled with embellishments. Cheers, Christine

@rebeccaday7076 8 месяцев назад

Next time use a matte clear spray on the key first. Love your pouch.

@createandcraftwithchristine 8 месяцев назад

Thank you for the most wonderful idea of coating the key! It came just in time and I used a matt clear paint on coating and the key looks even more wonderful without the risk of rust transferance! Really appreciate your suggestion Rebecca 🤗 cheers, Christine 💙🧵🪡

@marthamanigross 8 месяцев назад

It’s so beautiful. The key is a wonderful idea. I was thinking you were going to put it on the flap - the weight alone would keep it shut! 😊. So glad to hear Alex is on the mend. 🤗❤️

@createandcraftwithchristine 8 месяцев назад

Thanks Martha - I’ve worked out a great approach for the key. A viewer suggested coating with clear Matt medium which I have done and I’ve attached it to the lower pouch on the diagonal with a little beaded elasticised loop that hooks over the bottom of the key (from a detachable decorative bra strap of all things from my bits and pieces box).

@creepycutiecrafty 8 месяцев назад

I love that design - your pouch is going to be very handy once it’s finished! Your embroidery painting is gorgeous, and the colours all blend so well. The Key closure is a beautiful touch - and adds so much to the interest of the design!

@createandcraftwithchristine 8 месяцев назад

Thanks so much! Having fun pondering how best to create the key closure - raiding my box of odds and ends for it 🤗

@creepycutiecrafty 8 месяцев назад

@@createandcraftwithchristine I can’t wait to see what you do! I was watching and thinking that if I did that, I’d use a wider ribbon, but crossed over, so there’d be an X on the front of the bag. Sort of in keeping with the secret garden theme! Quite by coincidence, I’m planning to have a go at creating a bag or pouch in the next month or two as well. It’s so inspiring seeing the lovely things you and others have created.

@paulinedonnelly6077 8 месяцев назад

Christine, this pouch is beyond beautiful !!!!!!! Your thread painting is amazing 😊😊 I have been procrastinating for a few days to blanket stitch around a pouch I have made, & I'm glad I did as I will now do the V stitch edging you showed us xxxx TFS XXXXXX Learning SO much from you & other wonderful crafters out there ...... thanks to you all 🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗Hope hubby gets well soon 😍

@createandcraftwithchristine 8 месяцев назад

Thanks so much and very happy this video gave you a new technique to try. Have fun with your thread painting. Cheers, Christine
