What is it? – We take such great care with our sewn projects. Crafts, quilts, fashion, home décor, it doesn’t matter what. We envision exactly what we want to create. Once we have that picture, everything about it has to be just perfect. Patterns, fabrics, threads, and accessories are all selected with great care. We measure, mark, cut, pin and press with precision. And then, well, then we put it all together. We sit down at our sewing machine and put thread to fabric. And that has to be perfect too. Unfortunately that’s easier said than done. And if the stitches aren’t in the right place, what then? We take them out and start over. That’s time consuming and frustrating. It’s also unnecessary. Nancy Zieman and Clover have collaborated once again to bring you a new sewing tool that will enable you to place all your stitches with precision every time and on every project.
What does it do? – Clover’s 6-in-1 Stick’n Stitch Guide is truly a multi function tool that will make sewing even the most difficult and demanding applications of thread to fabric a breeze. The stitch guide itself is a two piece interlocking plastic foot. They can be used together or separately depending on your stitching application. Connection with your sewing machine is accomplished by a renewable adhesive attached permanently to the bottom of each foot. Just remove the feet when you’re done. They leave no adhesive residue. The shapes and edges of each foot makes it perfect for a multitude of sewing applications. A handy template ensures that the stitch guide is always in the correct position. So how’s it used?
Both sections together for straight stitching
One foot on either side of the needle for quilt strips or precision top stitches
Curve side up for outer curves
Curve side down for inner curves
Top stitch right side
Top stitch left side
How do I promote it? – Seeing is believing. Leave one set up on a demo sewing machine with some fabric strips on the cabinet. Invite your friends to sew a few strips. That’ll bring a smile to their faces. And as always, samples sell. Make some models showing precision stitches and some dynamite top stitching. Start the creative juices flowing. The rest is easy.
