Spirit of Christmas

another beautiful sketch this week from 2 Sketches 4 You. i used Bo Bunny paper for this one, cut out the scallops, the heart is frosted paper with snowflakes, and i made the swirl with wire from my jewelry making stash. the stitching gave me some trouble as i am trying to figure out the correct tension for my sewing machine. i was reading about how to do this on the net, and one site said to make sure your bobbin is full of thread, so you don't run out midway. like duh. well, i was sewing along and my thread was jamming and then not working... i checked... guess what the problem was... like duh. :) but i still haven't figured out the correct tension! anyway, thanks for looking and have a great day!
