Sew Sweet Frame

Hi crafters!  I know we have a lot of crafters out there that just love to sew! This frame is for you!  The Sew Sweet Frame is a themed frame that can be used to make really quick cards or you can use bits of the frame by easily nipping them apart too.  Shown here, I have sort of paper pieced it to create this card.  I just love how the spools look so cute with Bakers twine wrapped around them!  If you would be interested in getting your name in this drawing, just leave a comment on this post.  Don't forget you can use the Pinit button to add any of the cards or dies to your Pinterest boards for later inspiration too.  I will be back with the second post today at noon, don't forget to drop back by the blog to see what's in store!  All for now, Sue x

    Hello Sue and all
    What a fabulous card for our sewing friends and family. Love the snipability of it too, just like all of your frames Sue, so versatile and can be made so personal
    Hugs

    Morning. How I wish I was a natural home maker I can just about sew a hem up unless any material needs cutting away then it goes to the professional (especially curtains) so I admire any of you that can sew just about anything, what a fantastic die frame for those that have this skill, it would have been the perfect frame to use on my MIL's card if we'd not lost her 3yrs ago she could turn her hand to anything and bridal gowns were her forte for those that didn't have the finances for a 'designer' bought gown. Loving it Sue xxx

    The way you put the colors together gives it the look of a patchwork quilt. Probably intentional, eh? Quick of me to catch on!

    I do admire people who can make whatever they like from fabric, or draw whatever they like on paper.

    We’re all necessary in the mix.

    Best,

    Morning Sue, this is a perfect frame for my sisters who love to sew. I love the way in which you can snip the individual parts to either use them individually (as I like making exploding boxes) or for a 3d frame. Great start to a new day. Hugs xx Pauline in S.A.

    What an amazing frame. I have just spent a good while examining all the detail and individual elements - it is incredible. This card must have taken ages.
    Sewing has never been one of my interests or hobbies but Ihave a lot of friends who indulge in spending time with a sewing machine. All,in all - another must have x
