I have been working on my slow stitching Kawandi project I received at Aprils Scrub Stitchin retreat.
This is all the fabric I had left out of a charm pack.
I have now done all the stitching.
I wasn’t very even with lining up my edges with the next row of stitching. Kate was very careful with hers. So I added in some extra lines to catch down the folds.
The other way I tried was a bit of blind stitching. I want to see which one will stand out or look better in the finished project.
This is all the thread left too. I did my stitching half inch apart. If you do closer you will probably run out of thread. Here is my fat quarter that was in my welcome bag on the back of work and the label from the charm square pack.

What a beautiful project! Well done. Gail at the cozy quilter
I love those bright colors!
Lovely project. I really like Kawandi those big stitches are fun to do.
I have long admired Kawandi projects...I'm off to look for tutorials!
Mine is still nestled in its paper bag. I have yet to be inspired. I think I'm waiting to see what everyone else does with theirs.
That is really eye catching Jo. I love the simple rhythmic lines of Kawandi. You have inspired me to have a go at some more. I like the way you've turned the edges under ... often folk leave the edges raw & this really bothers me as I feel it would fray. xx
Beautiful project and stitching!
Great finish Jo - the extra lines of stitching blend in well and the blind stitching needs searching for! xx
Great work. It turned out beautifully.
I'm curious to see if I'll try this technique sometime... I like your colors.
I've just laid out some fabrics for free-cutting.
Happy sewing, and a hug to you. Viola
Looking good. Now I’m intrigued to see what it turns into.
That looks awesome!
Looks fantastic Jo, mine is still in the bag too - needs to see the light of day soon!
I love it! Your projects are an inspiration.
