The Roxy’s Journal of Stitchery prompt for the month of June is to create a slow stitch vessel or bowl.
The version I’m going to share with you is very easy to make from little scraps of fabric on a felt or blanket base, and to decorate with simple slow stitching stitches.
My piece is inspired by a poem by the incredible Mary Walker titled Wild Fruit. Please check out Mary Walker’s website and instagram:

In this episode I will show you how you can put your slow stitch vessel together, including some handy hints for tightening up an oversized base.

With thanks too to Annie Claxton @artyfartyannie who got me started on this fabric panel as part of her Colour inspirations project earlier this year.
I hope you enjoy following along with this idea and tutorial to make an easy slow stitch container or vessel using scraps of fabric. And maybe you want to take a poem or piece of writing as inspiration too!
