Project #5
Today we launch a new section that highlights some of our favorite projects and, hopefully, provides inspiration for additional ways to use Alabama Stitch Book and our upcoming Alabama Studio Style.
It is most appropriate to launch today with a corset from our editor Melanie.
Thank you to Melanie for all that she has done to make jumbles of words, images and instructions into something of substance.
Follow the instructions below to make your own…
