Description:

March's theme is basic sewing, so let's have a swap to allow all the paper crafters to get their sewing groove on too. Sewing isn't just for fabric, you can sew on paper too.

Some helpful tutorials
* Sewing Cards & Envelopes
* Molly's Sketchbook: Sewn Paper Valentines
* Hand Sewing on your Cards Tutorial
* DIY Hand Stitching, part 1

Basic Guidelines (for everyone participating)
* Start by making 1 card for 1 partner located within the USA.
* Either hand sew or machine sew part of your card.
* Wander to the mailbox or post office on or before Saturday, March 31st to mail your creation.

Added Challenge (for those who want to push themselves more)
* Included both fabric and paper on or in your card.
* Include hand sewing and machine sewing on or in your card.

One last thing
* The card shown is one I made several years ago. It uses machine sewing, cardstock, vellum, rubber stamping, inking, and embossing power.

Any questions or suggestions for improving this swap before it begin, feel free to let me know.

was watching and then realized (dumb me!) that it's US only ;-)... Have fun for those joining.

Unfortunately, no one is joining. I'll make it international and see if that helps.

Thanks for changing it @Kathyy I really wanted to join, but my work load has increased and I'm afraid I will not have enough time to send a quality card.

No problem @Toupti I understand.
