If you draw or paint in a sketchbook, you don’t usually get asked “what are you going to do with it?” So it’s annoying if someone makes you feel stupid for enjoying stitching without having an end goal for it. This video was great.
I love this idea of stitch meditation. I have been interested in slow stitch, but the thought of a project overwhelmed me. This is exactly what I needed.
❤❤Finally words that can help me explain to people that ask me that dreaded question..I can't even tell you how much it bothers me when I'm in my zone and I'm slow stitching in public..at lunch..on the train..at work..even family and someone will ask and I try to explain that it is my meditation cloth and then they ask the dreaded question and I try to explain but their looks turn to confusion..totally drives me crazy and throws me out of my zone..so Thank You Thank You😍 so much for giving me the words to use and I will make sure to give you all the credit🤗🤗
Hi Kitina. I am glad it helped. There is so much external pressure to finish things and make things that are useful. It is amazing the freedom you feel when we let go of finishing or making things with an end purpose in mind. It is all about the journey!
Love your videos - thank you so much. I find them very helpful. I have only just disovered stitch meditation and am about to have a go. With best wishes from Lottie in England.
Hi Janet. Yes, I do have kits available. You can find them here: www.textileevolution.com/index.php/hikashop-menu-for-categories-listing/category/19-stitch-meditation-kits
I think it is a waste of so much .money time etc. and a big basket to boot? what would people think after you are gone and they find all that just sitting in a basket?
Like most artist's families they will sell them for a massive profit years after I am dead. Thank you though, you have given me an idea to distribute them to my students as an after death gift. ❤
