   Do use a hand held sewing machine/stitcher when sewing paper to your Bible?

     Nope! I just use my regular ol’ sewing machine ;-)
     I put it on a long stitch (if the holes are too close together then it acts like a perforation and can rip easily) with not too much tension and just go slowly. I haven’t had a problem yet, but I’ve been using my sewing machine on my paper projects for years now so I guess I’ve had a bit of practice ;-) In fact, my sewing machine has rarely seen fabric!

     If you’re here on this page (or reading any of the other blog entries) you’ll see on the right hand side task bar where it says “sign up for our newsletter and receive our free tools checklist” and there’s space to enter your email address below that.
     If you’re on the home page there’s a place to enter your email right underneath the Illustrated Faith heading.
     It’s sooo worth it!!

   I have that exact same bible! I am keeping it aside as I have another one that I’m “practicing” in. I want to learn from my mistakes, what bleeds through, etc. Thank you so much for sharing all those beautiful scriptures that you have done.

     As you can see…. I didn’t bother practicing. I just went straight into my bible, made my mistakes and learnt along the way! I remind myself constantly that it’s not about the end result but more to do with the act of meditating on the word and expressing my worship in this way. That helps the perfectionist in me stop freaking out ;-)

   Hello! I was wondering what you think of the ruled lines? I was looking at getting this Bible for my first journaling Bible, but I was frustrated to find that it came with ruled lines. Do you find that this interferes with your art? Thank you for your time :)
