Can it be true?? My new favorite glue is Helmar V2?? Yes it is! Since I am relatively new to Helmar, I am still checking out all the products Helmar has to offer.
On St Patty's day I used the Helmar Fabric Stiffener and all last week I tried out the V2 Spray, can I just say WOW?!
I drove to West Virginia this weekend for a charity crop for Lupus and a friend who came shared some of her work with me, I was ooohhing and aaahhhing at her pages when I came across one page and it had some beautiful sewing on it...or so I thought.
It was not actual stitching but faux stitching, so I asked her permission to make a video sharing the crafty technique with anyone who wants to try.
Here it is, hope you try this technique and share with us here at Helmar.
Hope you enjoy this technique as much as I do. Perfect for me since I cannot always take my sewing machine to the crops. Have a great week!

love love love it, Pinky!
i've always just drawn the stitches on, which has been okay for the purpose, but i've been itching for a little hand-stitcher. looks like this will definitely tide me over! (i have the Cutterbee Piercing Bugs, which SHOULD produce the same effect as the perforator, i hope!) :)
thanks, girlie! you rock, and your energy is contagious! :D
