Collage/ slow stitching

I love to show a collage of buttons..it excites the soul, doesn't it ?

From tea pot & cups, to fancy bunnies in dresses...to birds with flower garden painted on them......

Below is a great set of ideas for collaging into what is now often called slow stitching.  Something I have enjoyed for some years of creating a look to display my buttons....adding paper teastained and stamped over tags

Fabric and different scraps of fabric to balance the look,,,, stitching here & thereand a button or 2....

These can be framed after you select your creation and use some of your favourite treasures... open that tin or box... 

you know those odd things you cannot part with but never see......can be lace , ribbon, ric rac too even bakers twine can look interesting machined in place...zig zag....

I would like to say us a button from Barb Smith's design collection in each collage/slow stitching... but there is an idea......keep watch with the newsletter or pinterest or instagram or the website.......

I need a frame and some fabric ....to make kits?
