This weeks sewing challenge is to sew something other than fabric. So I made a paper rose from old book pages with sewn edges. Took some trial and error but doing a straight stitch before cutting the petals out worked the best. Mostly I was hoping for the thread to add a touch of color but it didn’t provide the look I was hoping for. A zigzag would look better, I think, but that stitch kept tearing through the fragile paper. #challengeaccepted #week8challenge #52weeksewingchallenge #paperrose #handstitched #sewing #bookpages https://www.instagram.com/p/CL0cVEEDk8m/?igshid=1xoocc8epr005
