Day 1 Start the countdown to Halloween


Welcome back to our blog.  We have all been 'sew' busy that I have not been able to post in a regular fashion.  But I love Halloween and I have made so many different projects so I recruited the rest of the staff to share some of their favorite projects as well.  So check back here for the next ten days until Halloween to see what Scrap & Sew has to offer.

Last year at this time, many of us were embroidering the very popular BOO-levard bench pillow by Kimberbell. Even though the kits are gone, we have many many bolts of fabric to make the bench pillow this year.

This pillow was such an inspiration to me that I made a few more projects from this collection.  Have you thought of pulling out your collections and see how you can create a new project for Hallowenn this year?

I had a orange t-shirt in my stash and decided to stitch one of the blocks on it. Using the name of the block, I add the saying to the shirt. Instead of embroidering the t-shirt I used the Silhouette Cameo and black glitter flex and pressed it on.



I then decided to slightly enlarged the pumpkin file to create earrings to coordinate with the shirt. This time I used the copper color Glitter Flex with the black embroidery thread and added the earring findings.



Be sure to stop by each day and see more projects with this collection as well as some other patterns that we carry at the store.

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...
