Yes, I’ve always gone under the couched thread as well as over it, so effectively a whip stitch? Definitely going to try this way too

I love couching. My favorite thing to couch is long pieces of yarn or twisted fabric meandering in wiggles all across a space. I never plan it out too much, just let it go where it does or fill it in. It's wonderful to see all these stitches in detail- inspires me to get stitching!
@k3n.clothtales

Yes! The ends of cording, ribbon, yarn! Why didn't I think of that. I have been using jacobean couching with skinny bits from squaring up quilt blocks. Someday I will have enough for one of the rice bags.

I would love to "meet" Fred-Fred and your two dogs (one big and one small I think you said). I have found that most crafty people are also animal lovers. Almost every crochet/embroidery/yarn/sewing person on RU-vid that I have ever watched has at least one cat sleeping on their work table. So precious. So please let us see your fur babies........ 🙂 I have never tried couching. In my naivete, I just assumed that one would just go over and over and over the "yarn" to be couched, but the way that you are demonstrating makes sooooooo much more sense. Thank you !!!

I actually loved seeing the back of that large wall hanging. While maybe not aesthetic for a wall hanging, the backs of pieces show off all the work/progress that has gone into e into it better than the front sometimes.
@k3n.clothtales
@k3n.clothtales 6 месяцев назад
Yes. I love the backs, to me they kind of show the journey you took in the stitching. The last large wall quilt I had in an exhibition had a piece of twine hanging from one corner so people could lift it up to see the back. 😊❤️

When you mentioned 'cat fur', I glanced over to the recent cat whisker dropped by my Maine Coon cat..... hmmmm Later tonight, I'm going to couch his long and thick whisker to my grey wool cloth book cover. There's a small bit of gold colored shiny thread that will give my cover some 'bling' posh too... Lol 🍄🍄

Why can’t we call it “hand stitching “, which is what it is.
@k3n.clothtales
@k3n.clothtales 7 месяцев назад
It is hand stitching but there are many different kinds of stitches and this one is called couching. 😉
@mixedthreadart
@mixedthreadart 6 месяцев назад
Slow stitching is a form of hand stitching. Slow stitching differs in that it uses scrap and doesn't have a planned pattern or use , rather it develops from your thoughts at the moment. It is very meditative, you could literally just stitch back and forth on a single piece of cloth while you clear your mind of stressful thoughts. Eventually you will have enough bits that there is an urge to make something with them.

Isn’t that Japanese stitching. ..? A true quilt has three layers, that is the definition
@k3n.clothtales
@k3n.clothtales 7 месяцев назад
I am not aware that I called anything a quilt but in my experience, a quilt is defined as two layers held together by stitch. Also I don't know what you mean by Japanese stitching in this case? This is a video about couching.
