10 x 10 x 12 Stitch Technique Sewing Notions Book
Pattern from Lisa DuBois
Program Teacher: Lisa DuBois
Lisa DuBois will be creating the base pattern for Notions Book. The stitching area will be about 10 x 10 inches and the finished size will be 5 x 10 inches. Fabric and threads can be from your stash.
Using a variety of techniques throughout the year we will add a new stitch to the Notions Book each month. The new technique will be shown and featured in this article. Keep checking back every month for the updates.
The featured stitch may be used as a band or put together as a block. The design is up to you.
Lisa has put together an inspiration Pinterest board of embroidery bands. Take a look at the inspirations at: https://www.pinterest.com/lisabenzing9/embroidery-stitches-bands/
A template pattern will be provided at our January meeting to our CNY EGA members to help design their own sewing notions book. Each month we will look at different stitching techniques to use.
Please share any special stitches and your progress in the comments sections.
