Slow down, stitch with intention, and create something beautiful.


Slow stitching is about mindful creativity—a way to work with fabric intuitively, without pressure or perfection. Using recycled fabrics, rich textures, and botanical dyes, you’ll create beautiful stitched pieces while embracing the joy of slow, intentional making.


Inside this course, you’ll explore:

✅How to source and use fabrics for slow stitching

✅Working with colour, texture, and botanical dyes

✅Creating stitched pieces without rigid patterns or plans

✅Turning recycled fabrics into meaningful, one-of-a-kind works


🎁 Bonus Gift: Creative Mending Course!

Learn to repair and refresh old garments creatively—because every stitch can tell a story.


This is about more than stitching—it’s about slowing down, embracing imperfection, and creating with heart.
