Sew and then Sew

 I've had the sewing machine out for the last few days.  I had a request to make some of my iPad beanbags and subsequently decided to look for new fabric to add to my stock. I came across this owl print - and I had to have it. 






So, when it came to the Less is More challenge this week, I decided to incorporate  the sewing machine in the creation of my design. Here is the theme:

                                           Three Colours

or 

Three Shades of One Colour

 

 

I keep all of my scraps of card in separate colour collections so I went for the blue hues folder.

I chose a Sizzix heart die set to cut the hearts out of card and funky foam. I originally had meant to use the hearts alone but I felt the need to add the central vertical card strips.  These were secured into place with a line of machine stitching.  All that was left to do was to add the sentiment.
