Last month we shared our projects for Eileen Hull’s Sizzix Classics Die Release. We are continuing to use these fabulous dies plus others for our February “A Stitch in Time” with sewing themes! The team will be sharing their projects which may include slow stitching and machine stitching but also based around the sewing/stitching theme. We love it when you create along with us, so get out those dies and ideas and have fun! Please share in the Fan Club what you make.
Designer Maggi Harding created a magnetic needle book using the Needle Book Die. It is quick and easy to make – perfect for a gift! Maggi used embossed felt and foam adhesive sheets to make the cover (great idea!) See the tutorial on her blog to learn how to make your own.
Jennie Atkinson made a sewing box inspired by her grandmother’s box, stuffed full of notions and memories. The base was cut using the Book Box Die and decorated on top with a Embroidery Hoop Die cut. She made dividers inside for a Needle Book plus other bits. Find the tutorial video on her blog!

Valentine’s Day bonus project…
The Cantilever Sewing Box Die can be used for all sorts of different projects. Lisa Hoel gave hers a Valentine theme and filled it with candy. So sweet! It makes a great treat box. You could also fill it with buttons, sewing notions or pretty much anything you want. Tutorial and more details can be found on Lisa’s blog.
Join us next week for more “A Stitch in Time” sewing themes projects!
