How many of you have tried the stitching dies in your Special Delivery Gift Set? I was really hanging back but finally took a leap of faith and pulled them out. I used the # 10 embroidery needle and 3 strands of floss like Susan suggested and sat by the TV and away I went. I thought it was very relaxing and rewarding.  It really was fun. I had never stitched on paper before and was not sure I would like it but I really did. |

It's quick and easy to do. And I love the look!

I agree, it's super relaxing. You should try stitching paper on a sewing machine. It's really easy, and the results are great. I bought a cheap sewing machine a year ago for stitching zig zags on paper. I got really good at stitching straight lines, and now I'm making all kinds of bags and aprons on the thing. Who knew I could sew?!  |

Love stitching on paper. I use just 2 strands on my designs.
I like mixing it up and do a backstitch on some and do a basting stitch on others.
I bought a little Sewing Machine to use for paper and haven't tried it yet, but maybe I'll give it a try this weekend

I purchased the die set but haven't tried them yet because of my back surgery (pain) hope to be able to try them before to long.I'm glad to
hear everyone is enjoying them.

You can still find some of the Bazzill stitching templates around. It's hit or miss, but I've seen them in the LSSs and around.
