Challenge # 4 - Lets get Technique-al
The technique we will be highlighting in this challenge is sewing!!! But not just any sewing, you must use at least two of the following methods on your layout: Machine Stitching, Hand stitching or Faux Stitching. You can use any combination, but we must be able to see at least two types on your layout!!
Now, it would be too easy if we left it at that, so we would like to see ribbon or lace attached to you layout with stitching, and thats not all, your title must be 'stitched' to your page!! Good Luck!!
All entries must be uploaded to the 'technique-al challenge' folder in the forum gallery by midnight September 2nd.

Re: Challenge # 4 - Lets get Technique-al
I love stitching on layouts! Don't do it often enough though. Nothing like a challenge to hopefully get me started again!
Re: Challenge # 4 - Lets get Technique-al
I agree!! I think stitching looks great, but i' ormally to lazy to pull out the machine so i just fake it!! this will also get me motivated to keep the machine out and do my large pile of mending!!
Re: Challenge # 4 - Lets get Technique-al
:lol!: Thats so funny Vicki. Just shows you that scrapbooking can be very inspiring - even to get your mending done!!!

:lol!: Sue, i am hard pressed getting my own done let alone anybody elses!! I normally take mine to my mum when we go visit!! :lol!: Hubby has been at me to stitch the number back on his basketball shirt for about 8 wks, but i keep putting it off, luckily he has 2, so he has had to wear his old one!!
Re: Challenge # 4 - Lets get Technique-al
:lol!: We usually take ours down to DP's mum as she is a professional!

:lol!: Megan! I got my Nana to do mine!
I was supposed to be making a pair of boardshorts but stuffed them up so badly, my Nana stepped in and did them all over again for me.
(The funniest part was, she was not happy when her shorts got a B!)

Re: Challenge # 4 - Lets get Technique-al
Too funny ladies! My sewing machine which was very old blew up last year in October and I just haven't gotten around to replacing it. I will have to do this one by hand and Faux. It could be very interesting how it turns out that is for sure.
Re: Challenge # 4 - Lets get Technique-al
ok I lied...i was gonna try all 4 challenges, BUT i don't know how to sew and don't have a machine either...
Re: Challenge # 4 - Lets get Technique-al
Its not as hard as you think Melissa, if you can draw dashes in a straight line, then you have done fake sewing, and the hand stitching only need to be as difficult as stitching a few crosses on your layout!!
Re: Challenge # 4 - Lets get Technique-al
i can hand stitch..what is the faux stitch mean?? cause the sewing maching is out of the question
Re: Challenge # 4 - Lets get Technique-al
faux just means to fake it, so hand drawn stitching!!! You shouldn't have any trouble with that!!
