Scrapbooking using a Sewing Machine
I love the look of stitching on my layouts. Recently I made
a page about my son turning 3 and stitched on a large circle mat.
It gave the circle a very artsy feel along with the ink I
had applied. I also love sewing as a way to attach ribbon
and paper scraps to a layout. I have both hand stitched and
used a sewing machine. Both have merit, but I love the ease
of using a machine - it's so quick and easy.
I used to have my sewing machine set up in my kitchen closet in my former house. I had my father install an outlet in the closet and I removed a couple of shelves to make more room. This worked well for the situation I was in at the time - very small house; scrapbooked at the kitchen table. Now that I have a larger house and a dedicated scrap space, I feel lucky to have the luxury of my sewing machine right beside me. I have space to leave it set up on my table, but sometimes I have it stored on the floor and just pick it up when I want to use it. I find I use it a lot more now and love it! I hope you can find a way to use your sewing machine more often. Accessiblity is the key!
