Fancy Flannel & Flowers
Several months ago I spent 2 weekends at my friends house in College Station learning how to make a rag quilt. When I was finished with the quilt I wasn’t ready to give up using the lovely flannel I had been sewing with! So-I decided to add it to the thank you card I was going to make her for being such a great teacher and an awesome hostess! Her sewing world and my card making world collided right here on this card. I love how it turned out. She loved it too! 
Sewing on cards is simple and fun. Here are a couple things to note while preparing to sew on your cards… Use a seperate needle just for card making as the paper will dull it. Putting a piece of double sided tape on the back side of your material, where you won’t be sewing, helps hold it in place while you sew. Set the stitch length to be longer then shorter for both the straight stitch and the zig-zag stitch. If the length is to small it could actually cut the paper or at least make it easier for the paper to rip. I would also suggest you practice on scratch paper before sewing on your card stock. There is a different feel with card stock and material then with all material.
Let me know if you try it or if you have any questions.

Fabric makes the world a happy place, I say!! You can never have enough (my husband may disagree).
I’m happy to report that your card making world has collided with my fabric world too and I have included a handmade card or gift tag in every sewn gift I have given since then!
Friends are so great to sharpen and expand our creativity!
Awww! It’s so fun and inspiring to be able to enjoy each others world and have some creative overlaps now and then! I would like to see one of your tags…like in 3 days maybe!!! Was going to ask the last time I was up but forgot! Thanks for leaving your comments! Made me feel like a million bucks!
Well put.
