A new creative practice known as slow stitching is trending. I love it and combined it with Bible journaling. Download the free printable at the bottom of this post. I show you how to make this freebie in the first video and sew it on fabric in the second video.
I began a 52 Week Slow Stitch Bible Journal Challenge for anyone interested in placing and sharing Scripture on fabric. You can do this by hand or machine (no Slow Stitch Police). #52SlowStitchBibleTags
We are creating fabric tags and sharing them in the Facebook Group. The following videos will walk you through the process.
