Sew Fun Accessory
The June Embroidery Club project and designs are ready to download! This month it's a pretty sewing accessory. I love the Chatelaine because it keeps my basic sewing tools handy. I can't tell you how many times I go back and forth between my sewing machine and my cutting table, just looking for my snips. With the Chatelaine, they are always with me - it's so convenient.
My proof reader, Patricia from Saulte Ste Marie, found the strap that wraps around the neck was a little short for her. She says, "What a nice project, so quick and easy. I can see myself making them for my sewing friends. I found the strap a little short at 30" so I split it in the centre back and added 5" which worked out to an extra 4" taking seam allowances into consideration and that works better for me." So, you may want to measure and adjust the length of the strap before you start, to ensure that it's right for you.
We've included cross stitch embroidery tips with the sc034d_spec.pdf document, for those of you who haven't done machine embroidery cross stitch before. Let me just say that you will love it. It soooo looks like it's done by hand. And you can stitch it on the finest of linens. Friends and familly will be impressed.
