Hello all!
Welcome to the June Challenge.... Sewing!
As a few of you know I'm on a bit of a sewing kick at the moment and I would love to share my delight in this craft in June.
So Crack out your sewing machine or your embroidery/hand sewing skills and get to work.
What to do:
Create a project with material and sewing on either a layout/off the page project or Greeting card.
Use Fiskars tools to create these projects with.
To submit an entry:
You have until 30th June to email a picture of your project to [email protected]
Can't wait to see what you come up with!
Here are some great Fiskars sewing tools:
Rotary Cutter
Portable rotary trimmer: (say what? Yes this great tool can cut material too!)
Ultra shape express with shape tempates: (yes another one! Use material stiffener and then cut the fabric with the Ultra shape express for your appliquing! Way cool!)
FISKARS 12-IN-1 SEWING MULTI TOOL
And don't forget your Fiskars scissors to !
_____________________________________________
I'll be back later with a how to on a project I've been working on.
In the mean time I hope I can inspire you with the following:
Bag:
I used The Fiskars Ultra shape express and Butterfly template to decorate the bag and my Fiskars Scissors. (raincoat material didn't need stiffening to cut out shape with Ultra shape express)
Quilted pin/needle holder:
I used the Fiskars Portable Rotary Trimmer to cut the material and my Fiskars Scissors.
Yes they are Heidi Grace pins you see. I actually use them as sewing pins!
All the best. See you soon with a how to on making your own fabric Album!
Groovy!
Great challenge Debbie....can't wait to see what others come up with.....
