My "Sewing" Project By Lynne



Hello out there in blogger land!! I am so excited to post my first project! This wasn't the card I started out making..the sewing machine and I didn't see eye to eye today..I am the first to admit I am not good with my sewing machine but couldn't wait to break it out and give it a try...so I got all excited, started sewing and realized my thread had come out of the needle..okay..easy..fixed that..start again and I end up with a huge amount of white thread under the card (where the bobbin thread comes out) and the only thing on my card was a huge clump of thread all in one spot (like it just kept sewing the same area over and over) ..so I just quit and pulled out my handy "faux stitching" template and did my card like this!
I hope you all enjoy it..there is more detailed information (and me ranting about the sewing machine LOL) on my blog at www.scrapthiscraftthat.blogspot.com

Beautiful layout and so pretty. Too bad about your sewing machine problem...keep at it and your sewing experience should get better.
