The Sewing Diaries - Week 5

9 Ways to Embellish and Label Your Projects

Janome Canada Artisan Sherri Sylvester of Thread Riding Hood started a six-week blog series called The Sewing Diaries, where she has been posting one topic per week about her new machine, the Skyline S7. You can find the first four weeks of Sherri's Sewing Diaries on the Janome Blog page. This week, Sherri provided nine ideas you can use with your sewing projects to make them more useful or fun.

For this post, Sherri made a couple of fat quarter skirts that are perfect for embellishing and using up any "spare" fat quarters you may have lying around. She thought it would be fun to add a book quote to one of the fat quarter skirts using the Skyline S7 alphabet feature.

The nine ways to embellish and label your projects is by using twill tape size label; a decorative ribbon loop; fancy top-stitching; leather labels; custom stitches; ribbon; quick and dirty camp/school name labels; printed fabric labels and text.
