Happy New Year!
January 1, 2017
Whether we want them or not, the New Year will bring new challenges; whether we seize them or not, the New Year will bring new opportunities. -Michael Josephson- When I woke up this morning I found out that there were almost 400 Pattern download registrations! I could notice the power of "FREE". ;) I am so excited to see all your makes and 2017 will be a new chapter for Sewing Illustration. Thank you so much for joining my Pincushion SewAlong and share your talent with us. Tonight will be sleepless, my friend.
Did you know that I used dark purple thread? Try variety colors instead of focusing on black or brown thread only. That's my secret tip for you. ;) I cut fabrics 3.5inch square and sew with 1/4" seam allowance. Finished pincushion size is 3" suqare. And you may already knew, I used; Stem-A-Seam 2 fusible web by Warm Company. Liberty fabrics from Ava and Neve Linen mix fabric from JoAnn Fabric store Aurifil 2000, Aurifil 1240, both 50-weight Cotton ribbons from Dailylike Canada
Don't forget to post your pincushions with hashtag #pincushion2017SAL and #SewIllustrated . Again, Happy New Year, my friend! Minki
