Stitched Sampler

I hate throwing anything away that might possibly be used on a project later. But…in an effort to make a little room and not become a hoarder, I actually threw these little scraps of fabric away. It was hard, I love these prints!

Only minutes later, while I was making a permanent home for my new sewing machine that I got for Christmas, I got the idea to make a stitched sampler.

What a great use for little pieces of fabric. Now, bear in mind that this is my first real project on my new machine.

I misted the iron-on embroidered letters from Joy SA and the white decorative trim with Tattered Angels Ruby Slipper Chalkboard Mist Paint and stitched to my heart's desire.

I cut a large die-cut square out of premium gray felt using my Accu-cut machine. I’m pretty pleased with the way it turned out.
