Newlyweds are ready to Seize the Day as the future looks bright!
The huge heart underneath the letter E was stitched with black thread. I actually used a sewing machine to stitch through the paper. I was a bit nervous but it was super easy. I sewed around the heart 3 times purposefully off setting the lines.
My Top TIPS:
1. Lightly sketch a simple shape with a pencil. (A good first time sewing project would be sewing a frame around a rectangular photo.)
2. Only sew through a single layer of paper. Plan your design but don't assemble the layers until after you have added the stitching details.
3. Do not stitch through any double sided tape because the needle will become sticky.
4. For complete control don't have to use the foot peddle . Use the hand dial to control the speed of the needle so that you can stitch more accurately and have more precise control.
5. Practice sewing the design to gain confidence. Use a scrap paper of a similar thickness. Be sure to check the sewing machine is making a clean stitch to avoid disappointment.
