Scrap & Sew Along starting soon!



I am excited to share with you all, our very first Sew Along at Scrap & Sew! Many times in my life I have had to go to a "Plan B", have you? This is such a challenging time for all of us and since my classes have been canceled at this time, I have decided to start a ' Sew Along'.  I dug through a number of my classes to find something that I thought would work. So starting Monday I will be featuring blog posts so you too can 'sew along' with me.

 Starting Thursday April 2nd is my Fat Quarter Flap bag. I designed this pattern in 2001-WOW- after spending all day working at a store cutting fat quarters.  It was very popular and I sold a ton of patterns.  After about 2 years, there were so many bag patterns on the market, I decided it was time for a change.

 The supplies are minimal and perfect for all of those fat quarters that you have been saving a project... You will need 7 fat quarters or cut your yardage into a 18" x 22" piece. Any sewing machine will be fine since you will only need a straight stitch.  I will be working on my Pfaff Creative Icon.

 The next Sew Along will feature the Silhouette Cameo and your embroidery machine.  It will begin Monday April 13th.   It will feature the free Cupcake pillow project from Kimberbell's web site. I am using a charm square pack for my project, but scraps will work as well.

Lastly, I will be featuring a serger Sew Along using a basic 4 thread stitch, so any overlock machine will work.  I am using the Pfaff 4872.  It will start Thursday April 23rd.  It is a small baby quilt perfect for tummy time.

 I hope you will be able to join me and use up your stash as well.  Don't forget to sign up for emails alerts ( upper right hand corner of the page) so you don't miss any posts.

 If you have any questions, just post them in the comments.  See you on Monday!

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...
