• Dec. 29, 2006 - Craft Blog AND Monograming without an embroidery machine

Posted in Sewing
In an effort to learn more about sewing/crocheting, I of course turn to the TALENTED ladies who are wonderful enough to SHARE how they do things!!

There is a WONDERFUL blog (Craft Apple) that I just learned about from Lorrie that I have been loving going through. I won't post EVERYTHING from there from the past (you can just go and search the archives), but I do want to share the things that interest me that I think might interest you as well.

I recently came across this how-to for Monogramming Without an Embroidery Machine. I thought it would make some great gifts (NEVER to early to get started on gifts - we buy throughout the year, why not MAKE throughout the year too! That way, come birthday, or surprise party, or Christmas, we can go into our homemade stash and grab something).

While this is for a letter to monogram something, I thought it can also be used for simple shapes (smiley face, heart, flower) too.

I was looking at the HSB home page and saw your latest entry.

Thanks so much for this great craft blog! I too am slowly getting back into crafting and relearning the art of sewing.

I would love to add you to my friends list.

Oh-- Aren't you just the smartest, thinking of making something throughout the year instead of when we HAVE to do it? Or just making something because it's pretty, even if I don't know who will like it. I tend to think "Well, I can't start on Cassie's gift until March, since her birthday is March 14th," and by the time March 1st comes around, I can't remember what I thought of making her earlier in the year!! Thanks for the tip that should have been sooo obvious to me, but wasn't! :)

Glad you liked Craft Apple's blog, too.
