Long ago, in 2020, one of the workshops at TextileArtist.org‘s Stitch Club I missed was ran by Stewart Kelly, who tasked us to use kantha stitching to make a small work based on a still life we designed. I needed a low key, fairly simple project to test how the new boys would handle crafting, and this was perfect.
My still life comprised of a notebook, a gift box, a ceramic bowl, and a small plant pot.
Thankfully, the kittens didn’t cause too much trouble. I know it’ll be a long, long while yet before I can be as comfortable leaving things out and about like I did with the girls, but I’m so happy my first craft attempt with them around was a success! Now, little by little, I can move on to more interesting projects.
