You know those moments when all you want to do is make something with your hands? No rush, no pressure — just fabric, thread, and a bit of quiet. I stitched this little piece entirely by hand, using scraps from my fabric basket, cheerful florals, and a few simple embroidery stitches to hold it all together.

Slow stitching has truly become one of my favourite forms of meditative making. Almost every stitch is like a deep breath. There’s nowhere to go, nothing to prove. It doesn’t have to be perfect. It just is.

And look — isn’t the result just so joyful? 🍋🌿
The sunny colours and playful triangles make me smile every time I look at it. It feels like spring, captured in thread and cloth.

If you’ve been wanting to try it too, just begin. A scrap of fabric, a needle, whatever you have nearby. No rules. Just presence… and joy.
