Useful stitches for Menditation and Mendspiration
If you have been following our posts about stitching for meditation, relaxation, and joy (also known as menditation), then you may be interested in our small library of stitches. These have been put together with some illustrations by the very talented Toni Catchpole. All of these stitches are great for beginners and intermediate sewers. They are easy to try out, and great for incorporating into your menditation projects. Give a new one a go - and let us know how you get on!
If you are right-handed, these stitches are most easily formed by working from right to left. If you are left-handed, then you will probably stitch from left to right.
