Weekly Challenge | Stitching with Karen
Tags:This week, our member Karen (username HelloTodayCreate), is challenging you to add stitching details to your next project. We love our talented members! Check back each week as we ask one of our members to inspire you with a challenge based on one of their projects from our member gallery. Be sure to follow Karen here at SC to see more of her work and keep up with her!

Hello! Who loves a challenge? Me for sure. I love the Studio Calico community challenges, they give you a base for a layout & sometimes I need that little push. If you look at my gallery photos you will see that I love using two things repeatedly, shapes and stitching, either by hand or by machine. When I received my Far Far Away Scrapbook Kit I fell in love with the diamond wood veneers straight away, probably because they are a shape & wood veneer, perfect dream embellishment really. I used stitching to complement the diamond shapes in a grid format & highlight the photos that were included in my layout. My challenge to you this week is to use some stitching to highlight your photos or shapes of paper. Get to it.

Love this challenge! I will probably use hand stitching because I'm afraid of my sewing machine. But thanks for the challenge!

Like @toribissell, I always break the needle of my sewing machine so here's a layout with hand stitching : http://www.studiocalico.com/galleries/153669-live-your-dream

Ever since I learned how to use the sewing machine, I've been stitching everything to each other :P http://www.studiocalico.com/galleries/153755-2015-week-6-my-collection

I had a sketch eaiting that called for a little hand stitching (just a bit to add a little detail).
