The CraftFail Verdict

The truth about those scissors I posted about earlier today: no, they don’t cut fabric. My world is shattered.

My portrait boxes are coming out mega fail. No, you don’t get pictures!

I’m afraid to try’n sew anything right now.

And with that, I’m going to light candles, take a bath, and feel sorry for myself.

🙁

    Oh no, what a pity 🙁

    Buuuut… Maybe a pro could sharpen them and make them into fabric scissors? There's a shop for grinding knives and scissors where I live, maybe I could ask their advice.

    Oh no – I was planning to try the same thing (scalloped paper scissors) in the hope of having lovely curvy edges :'(

    Hope you had a good bit of relaxation and recharged yourself and that today is a better making day!

    Ah the internet is a wonderful place. I suppose I ought to invest more than $5 on scalloped sheers made specifically for fabric – I'll order them from the webiverse at some point, thanks for the link Gloria :-).

    My crafting fail turned out decently afterall. I was prototyping a little box thing, but didn't think it all the way through, so I ended up just pushing paint and rhinestones around. It turned out half-way ok, but I'm confident that the next one will be better :-). Pictures soon…
