The challenge this week at Sentimental Sundays is stitching! Pull out those machines, needles or pens, and show us your stitching!
My sewing machine is in the shop right now. Kind of a bummer since it is fairly new. It was my anniversary present from my husband last year. It has been skipping stitches and sewing crooked. Since I am new to the world of sewing, I thought it was something I was doing. It turns out, it was the machine not me. So I used Dorcas machine to work on this card. Little did she know, this was a Thank You card for her and her husband, for some lovely anniversary gifts they got us. Also for her being a great friend!
I am a bit new to working with seam binding. Still trying to get the knack of it.
