Davinie's stitching challenge!

Time to put that needle and thread to good use. Using either your sewing machine or a needle and thread, use stitchery to create texture or an embellishment for your layout or card.

Not sure what I mean? Check out my "A Moment" layout from the County Fair gallery.
challenge due next saturday 2/4

***PLEASE REMEMBER, YOU MUST LINK YOUR LAYOUT TO THIS POST TO BE ELIGIBLE TO WIN THE $5 SC GC!!

So I'm assuming this is meant to be "special" stitching, not just a line across the page to hold a paper down?

Not nearly as creative as Davinie, but I did some random stitching on my accent circles for this page today and love the playful feel...TFL!

Here's mine, a lot less innovative but I stitched through my title and stitched behind the buttons and brad leaving lots or thread hanging loose. Hope it counts. http://www.studiocalico.com/galleries/54170-artist-in-me

On this one, I used my needle and thread to sew across the top of my ribbon and make the ribbon flower that is in the left corner of the page below the pics.
All I had was green and pink thread....didn't really match the page, so I figured I'd better cover it up!!!! ;)

I got brave and even sewed through gel medium and glue dots and it worked! Got my sewing needle all sticky tho. A baby wipe fixed that. Anyhoo, here it is, along with a link to it in the gallery:

I had a little sewing mishap on the title which made me upset at first. But, then the more I thought about it... I think it adds a little character! :) Thanks for the challenge, Dav!
