Sizzix Debuts Sewing-Themed Crafts Collection by Eileen Hull
LAKE FOREST, Calif. (PRWEB) December 02, 2015 -- Consumers can now stitch charming handmade creations thanks to the newest crafts collection by three-dimensional designer Eileen Hull® for Sizzix® and its family of die-cutting machines.
Artfully combining die-cutting and stitching, 11 new creative designs fashion cards, home décor items, mementos and other notions-themed projects. The Stitchlits™ collection includes three Bigz™ dies, two ScoreBoards™ dies, two Textured Impressions™ Embossing Folders and four Thinlits™ die sets.
The newest Thinlits™ innovation, Stitchlits allows crafters to easily position the three chemically-etched die sets anywhere on projects to cut perfect holes to stitch border, chevron, flower and leaf designs. An additional “Handmade Label” Thinlits offering is perfect for affixing to any do-it-yourself creation.
“Stitchlits provide a quick and easy way to stitch designs with paper, mat board and fabric without having to measure or use a pattern, making it a lot of fun for sewers of any level,” Hull said.
Button, embroidery hoop, jar and label shapes can be die-cut from any material that scissors can cut due to the steel-rule blade inside Bigz dies. Two ScoreBoards dies in standard and XL sizes create needle books and sewing boxes from chipboard and mat board for lasting keepsakes.
Completing the product assortment are “Sew Happy” and “Stitch with Love Set” Textured Impressions Embossing Folders that give rich, whimsical patterns to papercrafting projects.
“Our new Stitchlits products let crafters combine their crafting passions to create delightful DIY projects anyone can enjoy,” said Cara Mariano, Art Director for Sizzix.
The Stitchlits collection is now available in stores around the country, including local craft boutiques and major retail craft chains. For more information, visit http://www.sizzix.com/home.
