Mini Slow Stitching Blackbird Working Small Relaxing Textile Art Collage

Work small and use up the smallest scraps of fabric. Stitch along with me as I create a collage, add slow stitching and turn my bird silhouette into a Red-winged Blackbird. Loads of texture and colour is created with simple stitches. I use what I call the Wandering Stitch (which is really a seed stitch), Blanket Stitch and French Knots. Relax and join me! #slowstitching
