Slow-Stitched Polar Bear
Slow stitching, like slow food, was designed as a reaction
against the mass production of big-box decor. Meant to be
savored, slow stitching is the act of using needle, thread, and
recycled material to form art.
If you are sentimental, using
family garments in your slow-stitching creations is a beautiful
way to remember the past while producing something new.
Even
if your teen cannot sew a straight stitch, Slow-Stitched Polar
Bear will have him creating in no time. Here’s a great place to
practice, explore, experiment with different ideas, and learn
new techniques.
Slow-Stitched Polar Bear includes vintage and
reclaimed fabrics from across the world and is a portable art
project well suited for travel or movie watching.
