Giant Cross Stitching by Yvette-Michelle Cottle Da

Giant Cross Stitching by Yvette-Michelle Cottle Darby @craftedspaces

I started cross-stitching around 8 years old and I absolutely love the art. Over the years I have learned various other needlework techniques, but I consistently return to cross-stitching.

Several years ago, the changes in my vision and arthritis in my hands got me thinking outside of the traditional mediums. I also started seeing lots of yarn at my local thrift shop that I wanted to use to create a dialogue about sustainability. Most of the yarn would take hundreds of years to biodegrade, and will sadly contribute to our ever growing garbage crisis. So why not combine the two ideas!

This project took a long time to do, but it was very exciting to see it come to life. This piece is part of a collection I am creating. Flowers are the primary motif, because it represents this beautiful planet of ours.

Large format cross stitch has been done before. Over the years I have seen a few projects on various materials. However, I did not find many resources on the topic. So I set out to create my own approach.

The materials used in this project are thrifted and reclaimed yarn. The pegboard was a remaining piece from a project several years ago. I use yarn needles, which fit through the holes perfectly.

Media: Mixed Fiber Yarn and Pegboard
Size: 34.5" x 26"

Thanks to everyone that visited our booth @kempenfest. It was wonderful to meet you all. Thanks for the amazing feedback on our cross stitch pieces.

I have posted some of the larger pieces on our story, so here is a look at some of the smaller designs. I will be posting more pictures soon.

Practicing With Fabric Markers

A little Sunday afternoon crafting session. Testing out some fabric markers in preparation for our upcoming summer camps. I have had these Tulip @tulipcolorcrafts markers for several years. Some of them got dried out, but the majority of them seem good.

The following items are available on our website (link in bio) and/or studio:
🍃 Sulky Iron-on Tranfer Pen @sulkythreads
🍃 Oliso mini projecr iron
🍃 Wool Pressing Mat

Let me know what you think of my little project. Do you like using fabric markers? Do you have any tips for working with fabric markers?

Thank you for responding so generously to our me

Thank you for responding so generously to our mended jeans project. As requested, here is a list of books on mending. There are lots of wonderful books available; however, these are ones in our studio reference library.

The last book is not specifically about mending, but it features hand-sewing and embroidery that you can use in your mending and other projects.

As mentioned before there are lots of talented people that focus on this topic in more depth, and I reccomend you check them out (links below). We are also happy to answer any questions you may have.

Books from top to bottom:
🌼 Make + Mend @miniaturerhino
🌼 Mending Life @thefarwoods
🌼 Make Thrift Mend @katrinarodabaugh
🌼 Mending Matters @katrinarodabaugh
🌼 Visible Mending @bookhou
🌼 The Geometry of Hand-Sewing @theschoolofmaking

If you are interested, we have several copies of Mending Matters available on our website (link in bio). Our students also have access to our reference library, so let us know if you will like to schedule a visit.

Here is the finished repair. This pair of jeans is from my son who is now 6' tall, and have grown out of them. The knee needed a patch, and I could also hem them. I'm happy I get a new pair of jeans. The patch only took a small piece of fabric, and looks pretty cute.

It's a rainy day, and the perfect time for some mending.

I spent last week focusing on some mending as part of our #csscraphappy event. It was mostly jeans that had various size holes.

I did not make a huge dent in my scraps, but I find the process quite relaxing and I love the results. For this repair I decided to use a piece of dark blue stretch denim.

Tip! Remember to make your patch a bit bigger than the area you are repairing.

We have been asked to do a crochet class on how to make more fun items like the curly cues we shared in our recent reel. Perhaps including a session on how to make flowers, leaves and granny squares.

If this is something you are interested in learning more about, let us know. Message us or email create@craftedspaces.com. You can also learn more about our current Crochet Basics class on our website (link in bio).
