Thank you for attending Class Preview 2019!

To all of you who attended our first Class Preview of 2019, the staff and teachers at Scrap & Sew thank you!  We had a fabulous time with our Mardi Gras theme.

Crazy, wild time had by all!


Cindy, our computer guru!

In our quest to help you organize and keep clean your sewing space, we have offered another free pattern for you.  Our 'Klip It Bowl' is perfect for your free Wonder clips gift.

This is the picture tutorial for you which accompanies your written directions you received in your 'goodie bag'.

Supplies
2x 6" x 6" squares of fabric
1x 6" x 6" batting


1.  To attach batting to one side of the 6” square, sew an ‘X’ in the fabric square to attach the one square to the batting.


2.   Fold each piece in half, right sides together and mark a dart that is ¾” wide and tapers to 1 ½ “ long.

3. Set your machine to 1.1.1 with a stitch length of 2mm. Set the machine for a tie-off at the beginning and the end and thread cut. Stitch both darts. 

4.  Refold the square and mark one dart on each straight edge of each square and stitch following the previous directions. (Total of 8) Follow the same steps for the second piece of fabric.



5.  Clip all 8 darts and press them flat. 



6.  Place right sides together matching darts and clip with your rainbow Wonder Clips. 


7.  Stitch with a scant ¼ “seam.  Make sure you stitch the corners and leave a small opening on the straight edge, not the corner.


8.  Trim corners and clip in the ‘v’ for a smooth, straight seam. Turn right side out and press the seam flat.  Top stitch close to the edge and enjoy!


May all of your dreams be creative and all your spaces tidy!

Say Hello to August!

As the summer comes to an end and school starts up again, it should feel like fall, but not here in Florida!  My next workshop is reminiscent of our memories of summer with trips to the beach. The layouts will feature the Country Woods paper pack along with the Seaside Wishes stamp set and dies.   I will mix in the Cape Cod scrapbooking stamp set from Close to My Heart because it matches so well with the theme. Sun and fun activities are the themes of the August layouts, and the grandchildren had a great time at both St. Augustine and Clearwater beaches.

Day 12 of Christmas Stitching

Day 12 - A quick and easy gift idea is this napkin holder made from an 'in the hoop' quilt block. This is the Diva class for December and the class for Saturday has been changed to December 22nd.  So there is still time to sign up and finish it before Christmas. This napkin holder starts as a basic 8" block found in the Quilt selection of my icon.  I then added the Star #4 design from the Holiday selection of the machine.  I rotated it and centered it within the block. I love all of the selections in the Holiday category of the icon. You have already seen a number of them stitched up in previous posts these twelve days. I had a small class this morning but both of them finished their project and I even had time to take a picture. Jennifer G used a new gold metallic fabric as the  center design along with the flower B94 on the Epic. This size fits a package of store bought napkins perfectly. Ondrea D design is a combination of Basic Grey fa...

Welcome to mySewnet!

Congratulations on you new machine!  Even if you have owned it for a few years (like me) you have the internal software of a new machine!  The Epic 2 is new to the market but the Epic, Pfaff Creative icon and Viking Designer Embrillance 80 all have been updated in the last few weeks! The Pfaff update was released on April 6, 2020 while the Viking updates were at the end of February. The updates included: a. The ability to read .evp3- format of the mySewnet Library designs.  (This is huge and I am SEW excited!) b.  Support for the Pfaff Design Placement in the Sew Notice app.  Did you watch the FB live event? c.  Support for the NEW creative grand quilter's 260mm x 260mm hoop. If you need help with the update, please reach out to your dealer or you can leave a comment below and I will help you out. Today's topic will be how to get connected to mySewnet.  Once you are connected you will discover the excitement and ease of embroidery wi...
