Ask Beate
Beate Johns answers your technique questions
Q: Julie asked: "What are some ways to display ultrasound pictures in my scrapbook?"
A: Ultrasound pictures will fade with time, so make sure to scan them and print as a photo instead. Or upload the scan to a photo store and let them print it out for you.

Feedback From Past Tutorials
Kathleen has a suggestion for our Faux Stitching Tutorial: "There is an easier way to get this same faux stitching look. I use a tracing wheel that is normally used to transfer patterns onto fabric. I run the wheel along a metal ruler to keep the lines straight. Then connect the lines with a pen as they show above. Of course this only works for straight stitches!"
