How to Add Stitching to a Layout with No Sewing Machine

July 17, 2022 by Heather Holbrook

How to Add Stitching to a Layout with No Sewing Machine

Sewing and stitching has been popular on paper crafts for awhile now, you can use a sewing machine or dies that punch holes but what if you don’t have those? Well, Lisa Dickinson has a solution for you. She first printed out a template she created on her computer with dashed lines that created slanted squares, she used that as a pattern to punch the holes into cardstock with a push pin and then hand stitched with a needle and thread.

Visit the Scrapbook and Cards Today blog for complete directions.
