by Leah Farrar-White

Love the look of machine sewing on your scrapbook pages? Are you daunted by the thought of using your machine on paper? FEAR NO MORE!! In this class you bring your machine and put it to use. We will sew on cards, layouts and even photos. Leave with 2 stitched cards, and a scrapbook page that you custom pick out the papers for. We wanted you to make a page custom to fit your needs, so you'll provide the papers (see list below) and then you can adapt the page you make in class to fit your needs. We will also show you how to turn that page into a 2 page layout.

Bring to class: Your sewing machine, Paper trimmer, adhesive, black pen, ruler, red thread, for the layout:

1 piece background paper (heavyweight like cardstock)

2 pieces coordinating heavyweight paper (like cardstock)

9 scraps of coordinating pattern paper (6"x4" size)
