Roxy’s journal of Stitchery - Slow stitch pouch scissor pocket, needle holder & secret key tutorial

Having so much fun with this Roxy’s Journal of Stitchery trifold pouch project for volume 5.

Have loved creating this French secret garden inspired trifold pouch and on this video I will be sharing how I’m creating a little pocket for my embroidery scissors using a piece of vintage appliqué and a vintage French button featuring a rise growing up a trellis.

The pocket will also hold a needle keep and I share how I’m creating this from a piece of old quilt and one of my favourite edging stitches.

I also share my plans for a secret key from the dear grandpa’s antique key collection.

Then on to thread painting of the roses on the interior picket using Appleton wool. I share how I work on the curved edges of petals.

The pouch also features the I rage style fabric covered buttons I created in my video here:

Heye’s a link to the final video where I finish the pouch:    • Roxy’s Journal of Stitchery pouch - #...  

I hope you find this slow stitching tutorial relaxing to watch and providing lots of inspiration for creating your own bespoke slow stitch pouch.
