In this video I share a tutorial on how I combine vintage lace and scrap leather to make a cuff. I show how I use free-motion stitching to attach the different elements.
An old suitcase is used for displaying my cuffs at craft shows and my flea market shop.
I mention a couple of Bigz Dies that I used to cut leather shapes.
The Feather Die:
-Sizzix 660237 Bigz Die with Texture Fades Feather Duo by Tim Holtz
The Arrow Die:
-Sizzix Bigz Die, 5.5 by 6-Inch, Artful Arrows

Holy Cow, I'm the same age as that suitcase and look like it, too! 58? My 2 sons are older than you ..... ha! You still boost my imagination and I try to boost others in the area. Take care, Phyllis AKA fiberphyl

@@stitchesbyjulia I just referred your YT to a neighbor that I found out was refreshing her appetite for sewing, mixed media etc. and will continue doing it to all who are interested. Good luck in your summer sales! KEEP PUMPING OUT YOUR GREAT IDEAS. :-)

You are so creative. I love the way you display these cuffs on little pillows. They show up much better than just laying out on a tray. Love all your videos!

Love the feather, I actually think I have that die. Great way to use up scraps and I am enjoying making cuffs. They are fast, I can use a number of techniques and I get a lot of satisfaction because they are very pretty. Thank you for your generous sharing.

Hi Julia a really lovely post thank you, I love the combination of leather and lace it works perfectly. You explain everything so clearly. Your beautiful case reminds me of the one my Mum had which she used when she and her little brother were evacuated from Liverpool in the war - they were bombed out of their home and were sent away for safety. These little cases must have wonderful stories behind them. As always you inspire me Julia, thank you. I hope you and all your viewers have a great day. Fond greetings from the UK to everyone. Dorothy xx

Hi Linda, Here's the Amazon link to the Sizzix BigShot: amzn.to/2DZD3Fj. You may be able to find it at Micheal's or Joann's. I purchased mine 8-10 years ago at Joann's. Thanks for watching! Julia
