Thank you so much for this beautiful stitched fabric cover. I have been entranced by the look of slow stitching for a while but didn't quite know how to start. This video opened me up to the ease and comfort of it and I am determined to begin.
Wonderful!! 😘
Looks even better in the video. I am glad Don voted the image in, she is so lovely. I envy your bits of lace. I have several slow stitch pieces curated and lined up to work on, but I am sure I will lay out a book cover before I start any of them! Thanks you always for inspiration
I am so glad you liked the image Wendy! Don was quite vocal.. glad you will be adding a book cover! Thank you so much for watching and always taking the time to let us know! 😘♥️

@@CaterinaGiglio oh its THANKYOU 😍...... .I made a little fabric book all because of YOU ❤
@@isobeldunn9152 that makes me so happy to hear! ♥️
I love the softness of this book. It reminds me of one I have that was made for my mother before she was born. Cloth and words with images. Your art in this is so quiet, gentle. ❤️
Awww. 🥰 thank you, Lori.. what a fabulous old book you have.. what a lovely family heirloom. Yes.. I have been feeling very quiet.. it shows up in my work. Thank you so much 😘♥️
I am thrilled that you are doing this. I have been struggling to figure out a cover for a current journal and this is perfect!! I just started using poplin photo print fabric which has made it easier to stitch layers. I can hardly wait for the upcoming videos - Thank you!
Awesome! I am so glad it will work out for your embroidery journal! Thank you for letting me know that you enjoyed it!😘
Hi Anne! It sounds like you will really enjoy the technique and yes, a commercial photo print fabric will make it easier.. glad you are looking forward to the next two videos! Thank you for watching 😘
Beautiful
Thank you so much! 😘
Love, love, love your beautiful collages and pages!💙 So many possibilities and ideas swirling, awaiting their turn. Thankyou for the reminder to coat paper pieces with matt gel. Currently working on a pocket book which will be gifted. Thankyou again 💙
Oooh I hope we get to see your pocket book! 💙 love that you have ideas swirling! 💙thank you, dear friend. 💙🌸💙
Love what you are doing with your fabric book. My fabric book is very different from yours, but I am inspired to follow along with you and make a book more like yours. So pretty.
So happy you enjoyed it, Patricia! Thank you so much! 😘
Love it dear Cat, the soft tones, and simplicity of this beautiful cover . Thank you for your lovely inspiration.
Hi Dorthe, I knew you would love the palette.. thank you, sweet friend! ♥️♥️♥️

Howdy Cat, just started this video, and I can't get past your stunning front and back covers!! I LOVE this. Can't wait to see how the rest of this baby turns out. This really looks like fun! Thanks, and you and Don be safe and healthy!
Hi Lynn, dear friend... I am so happy you liked it! Thank you so much for being such a good friend and supporter of our channel 😘♥️ P.S. we have both been vaccinated and will see kids and grands in May! 😉😘♥️
@@CaterinaGiglio Yeah Cat! So glad to hear your both vaccinated! I got my J and J, 1x deal just yesterday! Its a bit tender still, but what a relief! YIPPEEEE!
@@lynnboyd33 yes j & j for me too.. hope you have minimal reaction!
It's beyond yummy... it's delicious!
LOL thank you dear friend!! 😘♥️
Love this little cloth book, got to make this one also, thanks..
Thank you Caterina for always sharing and inspiring me. I learn so much from you and I love your approach. I'm a "selective fabric junkie" and love fiber everything :) Muted colors and time-honored ephemera, to me, are beautiful. I'm looking forward to the next part of this series. On a completely different subject; may I ask where your white tile bracelet is from? Stunning and so you :)
Hi dearheart.. thank you so very much! I am looking forward to it too! The bracelets were given to me by a sweet friend they are saints bracelets one is a tiny silver charm bracelet.. and the other one is plastic believe it or not! But I just love it. I know she watches and will be so happy to see me wear them! Thank you! 😘
I love this! Thank you for sharing!
Thank you for watching! 😘
Tfs your tips this has been a very interesting and inspiring video
So happy to hear you found it inspirational tfw 😘
Caterina, This cover is simply lovely. I found you recently when searching YT for slow stitching. I used to embroidery from time to time but was curious about the words "slow stitch" as this term is new to me. I just had to subscribe and come along on your journey. This is something I will enjoy and become addicted to I'm sure. TYFS, Donna, in California.
Hi Donna, 8 have been slow stitching for years.. it’s a movement.. and a meditative process.. glad you liked it! Thank you for watching!😘
Wonderful.... Thank you. Blessings.
Thank you, Sharon!
Hello again Cat, I have a quick question for you. I've done those color transparencies a long time ago, like the beautiful woman on your cover, but wondering if you could down the road , do a tutorial on that process. I agree 110% with Don, she just had to be on the cover! Love her. Thanks, creative friend.
This is great idea , inspiring woman love watching from Fl greetings my dear
Thank you! So glad you liked it!! Sending greetings back!!😘
Beautiful! I love the image of the beautiful lady also! Your pin is very interesting! I tried to zoom in but couldn’t. ❤️😍
Thank you!! He was right!!
so perfect to see you make something that i've been mulling over in my mind.... the dark spots can also be obtained with very sporadic instant coffee... or walnut crystals
Hi, dear friend! Yes they can.. but I so love scrunching the cloth and seeing the dry marks form!! 😘 so glad you liked it!
So beautiful!
Thank you! 😘
Thank you! 😘
I love the image too like your hubby
Thank you!!
So excited to make one! Yours fabrics are lovely. Wondering what type of thread you are using?
Hi Amanda! Thank you! Just plain thread.. Use whatever you have! 😘
Hi Caterina, I am loving your tutorial! You make mention in the beginning while showing your completed book of your tissue paper technique to stiffen fabric. Where might I find that tutorial? Thanks so much!
Hi Lee Ann, here is the link.. ruclips.net/video/xfO5-1cRqmI/видео.html
Me again...you also mentioned, that to stiffen the fabric pages, to use your tracing paper technique. I don't remember seeing that one. Can you tell me what tute that was in or any info? Sorry, I'm full of questions for you. You just get my mind working in overdrive!! Yeehawwww!
I love this slow stitch cover! Geat video content, relaxing!
Can you please leave a still photo of the opened up cover front and back so I can capture a screen shot for studying afterwards? It would be most helpful. There was too much movement to catch a good shot this time. I will go to the group page and look.
Thank you so much and I shared a photo, in our group! 😘
Wow, love this,miso inspiring - and I didn't know you could transfer an image to fabric! Is that hard to do?
Hi Carol, thank you so much! Here is my transfer video. Follow this technique but substitute fabric. Make sure you have wax paper or freezer paper underneath the fabric as the gel medium will seep through. Leave it overnight to dry.. ruclips.net/video/6TM4T1s5lXI/видео.html
It’s absolutely precious Cat. Please share the name of the original portrait art work
Thank you xxx
Hi, what is the main fabric of your cover? Do you have a tutorial on picture transfer? Love your work! Beautiful! Thanks for sharing!🥰
The fabric was just old cotton.. and here is the transfer link.. ruclips.net/video/9meGGHW9K9A/видео.html
Such a beautiful journal. Thank you for taking us through the steps. Is the Gel Matte medium the same or similar to Modge Podge? I wonder because of the rubbery texture each seems to leave your fabric or paper with. I have an old faux vintage book box that is becoming so brittle. Would this Gel Matte medium be advisable to use to keep it intact and free of further chipping?
Mod podge would work although it dries different than what she uses. Also it leaves a sheen even with a matte mod podge. I suppose it's according to what you want.
I absolutely ❤ your creativity and I need to borrow your brain just for an hour even🤣 tfs!
LOL 😂 thank you! 😘
@@CaterinaGiglio very welcome! You inspire me to create. I made afew fabric/ paper transfers to use in a journal. Thanks for being a great teacher AND to me you can say yummy all you want
@@Wendy-sj6di thank you so much!! 😘
when you did the inside did you use paper for the signatures or fabric
Fabric…
💙🖤💙 😘
😘♥️🙏🏻😍💐
How do you do your picture transfers?
We have about 130 videos.. you might want to go to my page click videos at the top header and look thru them.. I have at least two videos on making transfers.. but this one should help… ruclips.net/video/6TM4T1s5lXI/видео.html
Cat may I ask how or what do you use to stop your transfer pictures from fading thankyou . 😊
Denny … umm I haven’t had a problem with mine …are yours in direct light?
@@CaterinaGiglio hello ,I'm so new to photo transfer ..yes I did one recent ( roxy slow project ) and it faded I've yet to try your technic..ive sewn all my life and at 72 putting books together is such fun yip I need to do a spine ..love your attitude very like mine xthankyou
@@dennypondaview well.. I don’t know what the Roxy method is..but try mine and see what you think 🤔 it’s a fine art technique..
I think it was my printer needing new ink 🤔. Cheers
Could you please show us fabric printing?
I have a fabric printing video..it’s mono printing…
@@CaterinaGiglio it is more the beautiful woman's artwork face I would love to do
