Sew Mama Sew is doing a wonderful Ready, Set, Go!!! series full of great tutorials to aid you on your summer travels. Well for our family, the biggest issue about summer traveling is the beautiful Sunshine coming in through the car windows. So I whipped up a fun little tutorial as part of the Ready, Set, Go!!! series. A Patchwork Car Shade, that doubles as a Tic-Tac-Toe board. Pop on over and check it out.
And I was super excited to try something new for this little tutorial. I tried using the automatic button hole maker (very techincal term) on my machine. And I love it!!! So much easier than the good old days of manipulating the zig-zag stitches at least 7 times to create 1 button hole. Now I just type it in, stomp on the presser foot, and wham!!! A button hole. And it's got me thinking I need to make some more projects with button holes :)
So what have you been trying new this week?? You know what to do . . . Link on Up :)
