Machine stitch onto paper

Machine stitch onto paper.


This was my last piece of development. This was also probably the most important as well because if this failed i'd have had to have found a new material to try my experiments on. 

Method:
  1. Gather your equipment, which is your sewing machine, thread and pencil.
  2. Next draw out your design.
  3. After set up your sewing machine (refer back). Then using a test piece try out the stitch.
  4. Once you're happy you can start to stitch your design. This doesn't have to be perfect/fancy because its just seeing if the technique worked. 
  5. After that since the technique work you can use it on your final piece. Now pack up your equipment. 
Health & safety
  1. Be careful when setting up the sewing machine, keep water away and be careful with the needle.
  2. Hold the sewing machine with two hands and place it down carefully.
  3. Keep your fingers away from the needle. 
  4. Make sure the cable is plugged in properly. 
  5. Clean up after yourself.
