Sew Easy? Not so much.

With a Michael's gift card burning a hole in my pocket,
I finally broke down and bought a Sew Easy.
{ Thanks, Mom! }

I love it, but there is a definite learning curve.
{Getting those lines straight is going to take some practice.}


Are you ooohing and ahhhing?!

It's that paper! Thanks to the enabling Cassie over at
I snatched the Country Boutique 6x6 pad from
right up.


See that gorgeous washi tape?
Cassie again. It's from Freckled Fawn.


In short, if you're looking for the latest and greatest in the paper world you can't go wrong at Paper Issues.
No, she didn't pay me to say that.
I'm simply floored by her fast, friendly customer service and
overwhelming supply of crafty goodness!

  2. This is so beautiful! The stitching adds such a nice touch. I don't have a Sew Easy, but I use my sewing machine...ALOT! I lightly draw a straight line using a ruler and a pencil and it works every time. Maybe this would work for the Sew Easy too. :)

  7. Great lookin' card!

    I've eyed the Sew Easy- but have been afraid it would be tough to do and do WELL... I don't know, it looks kinda dodgy to me... but dangit if I don't want one, now. Even with the learning curve warning. I'm not a fan of learning curves! I wanna start and RUN!

  13. I know someone who bought a Kenmore vintage 70's machine at a local thrift store and has yet to actually learn how to thread it or how it works........so kudos to you for jumping in there and going for it! It looks awesome!
