{Quick & Easy Tutorial}
I got a {fancy} new cutting machine. It is a Brother Scan n’ Cut. I got it back in December. The thing sat in the box, on the floor,
for a good month before I was brave enough to even take it out of the box. Why do these machines intimidate me
so?!
Anyway, I wanted to make a fun {and easy} little banner for
Valentines Day, so I figured it was time to get to know my Scan n’ Cut. One main reason it sat in the box so
long was because I was waiting to take a class {yes, a class!} on how to use
it.
Even after the class, I still waited a bit to use my
machine. I’m not really sure
why. The thing is amazing. All that to say, I used it to cut out
my felt hearts! It saved a lot of
time. And, all the hearts are exactly the same size and shape!
I used some white wool felt I already had and cut out a bunch of little hearts. I then took some red DMC floss and ‘stitched’ through each heart. One by one until they were all on the string.
Voila! New
banner! Super easy. Well, super easy when you have a
machine cut out all the hearts for you.
I probably saved hours by not having to cut them out individually!
{Supplies}
Wool felt
Red DMC floss
Needle
Scissors
Cut. Thread. Stitch. Done.
Really, that easy!
Cut out the hearts out of the felt.
Put some DMC floss onto a needle and ‘stitch’ through each
heart one by one.
When you’ve used up all the hearts, you’re done!
So, so easy!
Hang it up and spread some love!
