Learn Something New...



Everyday. At least that's what they say. But I feel like it's taking me a lot longer to learn >) Hahaa- okay. It's only been a month since I started sewing. But seriously! It feels like ALOT longer since I'm just reading the dang manual over and over and over again. I keep thinking it's got to get better! RIGHT? So every day is a new day to learn something new. And all I keep learning is that I have no patience!!! I think that's in the manual too...WARNING: Do not operate this machine without PATIENCE!!! AH-HA! Missed that the first time. Well, I'm just going to keep trying. No machine will get the best of me! hehee.



This layout was created without any adhesives. Yeah. No biggie I guess. But still, I always use a TON of adhesive- so this is a cheaper route ;) More $$$ for Starbucks!!! Woot! What is big is that this was my submission for the 2nd round for SISTV call for Fashionista's DT. Oh. My. Goodness. No joke. I made it through to the NEXT ROUND!!!! WHat???? Yeah- I'm in shock too. Go figure. Lately, more than anything, I've just needed to scrap. I hadn't scrapped since Jan! Well, if you count Sarah's Class then maybe. I can't explain my "style". Except that I'm addicted to learning to sew and well, it's so nice to play again. Yes Mr. Mojo. I like you. Come back to play soon k? -muah!

I really don't know what you're talking about... you must know what you're doing because your layouts have been ROCKING with all of your stitching!
:)

p.s. when you're not stitching, have you ever used rubber cement instead of other adhesives? You can buy it in bulk and it's pretty cheap/goes a long way.
