Re: Book Giveaway: "Girl's World" by Jennifer Paganelli

I would love to win this book.I would use it with the Girl Scouts of Gulfcoast Florida where I am a volunteer sewing instructor available to 12 Englewood troops.

This year Brownie Troop 565 earned "Try It" badges lacing,sewing on buttons and making the "Good Turn Mouse". The Cadettes's SEW GLAM project was pillows and cat quilts for the local shelter.

I would use "Girls World" to teach the girls to sew and instill a life long love in their hearts, as sewing is in mine.

Re: Creating Chemical Cutwork

Before planning to etch a lot of fabric, try one small piece. My experience was that Fiber Etch did not work nearly as well as pictured in this article. I passed my supplies on to another who wanted to try it and she also was not successful in creating any useable cutwork.

If you can get the results as pictured in Threads article using Fiber Etch, please advise the rest of us.

I have no experience using the Bernina program and hope it is fantastic. I would gladly pay a Bernina owner to create bed linens with cutwork for me.

Re: Create Perfectly Mitered Corners

Didn't Louise Cutting and Linda Lee design this technique several years ago? Have they been given credit?
