Love note

Make it TSS-style:Instead of hand-sewing, use your machine. You'll be able to share your sentiments with many more people and adorn the note with embroidered graphics.
Try: Don't stop at greeting cards. Think Martha and sew on anything paper-based including place holders, photographs, framed art, and baby memorabilia.
|
| Don't sacrifice your good fabric. If you are experimenting with patterns or trying something new, make your pattern templates out of broadcloth or muslin first to test it out!
