You will need a package of Solvy. Solvy is a water-soluble stabilizer that helps the presser foot glide more easily over the work and holds it all nicely while you are sewing for more consistent stitches and tension. Don't skip this step. Without Solvy, the results are always unsatisfactory. I have tried skipping the Solvy many times and always regretted it, unless the fabric is super-sturdy and tightly woven. And even then... not so good.<br />
<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>

</tbody></table>
For accurate size and placement of lettering, you can draw your design directly onto the Solvy, and simply trace over it when you are stitching. Or you can go with the flow, skip the "template", and doodle freehand directly on top of the Solvy, depending on the look you are trying to achieve and your comfort level.<br />
<br />
To make a template to follow, plan your design on a piece of paper, then trace onto a sheet of Solvy stabilizer with a Sharpie. Diagonal baste, pin or tape the Solvy onto the fabric, and stitch on top of the lettering. The ink will disappear when the Solvy is removed by running the work under water.<br />

<ul style="text-align: start;"></ul>
Get your machine ready: remove the regular presser foot and attach the special darning foot, standard issue with most machines.<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
A sturdier needle generally works best. (A lighter one is prone to breaking, and the thread may shred in the smaller eye.) I like to use a 90 or 100, with cotton thread. Avoid polyester: it heats up and stretches as it moves quickly through the tension disks, causing the work to pucker slightly when it cools. Poor quality or brittle, old cotton thread, is unsuitable, as it will shred at high speed.<br />
<br />
<div>
Lower the feed dogs so the machine can't grab the fabric. You get to drive the car anywhere you feel like - forward, backward, sideways - at any speed you like. You can even do donuts in the parking lot! Get ready for some fun!</div>

</tbody></table>
<h4>
Stitching:</h4>
<div>
Place the fabric under the darning foot, and lower the presser foot only <b>half way</b> down. You may have to do a little detective work with your manual to find out how to get your machine into "light grip" mode.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Hold the fabric taut with two hands, and move it in an even motion, while using a consistent pressure on the foot pedal. Both a faster machine and slower hands produce shorter, more densely-spaced stitches. You're the only car on the road, so take that baby out and see what it can do! It will take intense focus at first to get used to the feeling - foot! eyes! hands! - but you will be cruising along in zen driving mode before long. Remember to breathe, and keep your shoulders away from your ears.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Just like driving a car, the stitches will go where you are <i>looking</i>. You don't look at the tires of your car, so don't look at the needle! Keep your eyes <i>in front of</i> the needle, where you are trying to go.</div>

<h4>
Tips:</h4>
<ul>
<li>For cursive writing that really looks like your own handwriting, slant the machine in front of you like you would the paper when writing a love letter.</li>
<li>For larger areas, the fabric may need to be rolled up "scroll-like" to fit under the machine, for better control.</li>

<h4>
Fun variation:</h4>
Sandwich a textile strip between the main fabric and the Solvy. I use thin strips of fabric scrap cut off by the serger, but you could also embroider onto bias strips, <a href="http://otherboxes.blogspot.ca/2015/08/sewing-tip-6-rick-rack-puzzle-55.html">rick rack</a>, narrow ribbon, etc. This is easy-peasy lemon squeezy with the use of a glue stick:<br />

<div>
Cover the area to be embroidered with a sheet of lightweight water-soluble <a href="http://otherboxes.blogspot.ca/2015/08/sewing-tip-4-puzzle-top-how-to-45.html">Solvy</a>. For best results, <a href="http://otherboxes.blogspot.ca/2015/05/diagonal-basting.html" target="_blank">diagonal-baste</a> the Solvy onto the fabric. It won't move around or bunch up if it's basted, and the machining is generally a breeze. I actually think I save time by hand-basting, instead of pinning.</div>
<div>
<br />
If I can't convince you to baste, at the very least, pin the corners and every 2 inches, or so, or use scotch tape. Avoid sewing over the pins, which will likely damage the needle and possibly wreck the darning foot. </div>

Proceed as above for freehand machine embroidery, following the curve of the textile "template" to affix it to the fabric. Go over the line 3 or 4 times to make sure it is firmly attached. Play around with speed, stitch density, thread colour.<br />

Remove excess Solvy by ripping it off quickly. Throw the work into the washer on a gentle cycle, or soak and squeeze by hand. The Solvy and the glue will disappear like magic. <br />Note: those tiny bits of Solvy can be saved to dissolve in water and used as a "brush on" stabilizer".<br />

<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">"Leah is meticulous in her work, she is thorough and detail oriented. She is innovative and her work is first class. In all my 60 years of teaching, I have to yet meet another person who is as capable as Leah." (Blossom Jenab, Couturier)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br class="Apple-interchange-newline" />"When I found out she was willing to give sewing lessons to complete beginners I made sure I was in. ... She keeps the lessons positive and fun. ... She has such a huge fund of great ideas that she shares willingly." (CZarina Lobo)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">"Leah is open and supportive as a teacher. We can ALL sew almost anything is her attitude. She is never judgemental. She ... indirectly gave us lessons on reducing our impact on the environment by reusing fabric being "thrown away" and making fabric re-useable bags for sandwiches and presents, etc. She inspired her students... to continue sewing beyond the class..." (K. Shah)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">"...Leah calmly and confidently explained how the best way to hem the pants would be. She proceeded to iron, baste and sew (them) with such clarity that it was easy to follow, and easy to remember. I was touched by the full attention and time she gave so willingly." (Martha Reilander)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">"Leah is a passionate advocate of recycling and her vision is reflected in every aspect of her life. This influences the entire community around her. Her students make projects with materials that have been diverted from the landfill. In July 2016, Leah’s students, their parents and the Vancouver public benefitted from a solo art exhibition of her creations made entirely from normal household waste. Objects discarded are turned into objects of desire and value in the hands of Leah Price." (Erika MacVicar)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">"</span><span style="color: #222222; font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">Leah was excellent with the children, engaging them in a warm, professional, efficient manner. Her passion for sewing and crafting was evident and this joy spilled over to the kids and parents and was very contagious. Leah runs her classes with enthusiasm. At the same time, she is efficient, productive and very safe, as the kids are working with various machines that could inflict pain! Leah is a natural and calm leader. The kids look up to her, feel safe with her and are inspired to learn and do their best. They are asked to think creatively and to work hard. They bloom in this environment and are very motivated." (Christiane Collin)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">"...We customized the class to make it zero waste by using only discarded material, and the items made were
aimed to make a zero waste lifestyle easier. ...
Leah challenged me to come up with my own goals and targets by having me choose what items to make and
in what time frame. She listened to my hopes and provided constructive criticism when necessary. She really
helped keep my mind set realistic. ... I was an absolute beginner ... and Leah was very patient, explaining in detail how to apply which technique and why... repeating the instructions or helping us fixing our mistakes. Before each class she made the item herself,
sometimes with different patterns, so we could choose which one we prefer and see what the finished
project will look like at the end. This practice helped to motivate us and encouraged me to keep going, even
when struggling.
It was a pleasure taking my first steps into sewing with Leah. I would not hesitate to take on another session
with her and would definitely recommend her to others." (Celine Lopez)</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">You kinda have to trust your instincts when you colour. That's basically how I learnt it. You try it - </span><span style="font-size: large;">now. <i>You</i> trust </span><span style="font-size: large;">your instincts - or you might never get to it if you just think about it!</span></blockquote>

<span style="font-size: large;">That was your first time trusting your instincts, wasn't it? See? Doesn't it work when you trust your instincts? Seriously: just trust your instincts and it works! (AZ, 10)</span></blockquote>

One of them seems to have its wings on wrong - the orange wings are on the outside, and the smaller, grey wings are tucked next to its body. First one, then after flapping around awhile now both are. I assume it will not be able to fly? Is there anything we can do to help it?</i></span></div>

<blockquote class="tr_bq" style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri;">
<span style="font-size: large;">It’s really hard to tell with painted ladies until they mate. Then you see the boys chase the girls around with their little bums curled trying to hook up. LOL</span></blockquote>
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: "arial" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">When they're mating should we do something else, or should we watch? We shouldn't disturb them when they're mating, right?</span></span><br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq" style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Ha ha they are not shy! You can watch them. If you let them mate then release them that is the best. If you keep the eggs you would need more food to feed the caterpillars. The ladies will lay their eggs on host plants they know the larvae will be able to eat. </span></blockquote>

<span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Princess in Black</i></b></span></h3>
<span style="font-size: large;">She is a monster fighter. No one knows she was a monster fighter but her servant noticed that she was Princess in Black 'cause she noticed some black in her bedroom closet: black stockings, black shoes, black mask and black cape. Black suit, black boots, black whip, and that's it. And a staff, wand... stick, too. <br /><br />You sound horrified! (She has it) to make for the monsters not fight - to make them go in their hole. It was a place... her secret place and somebody got in trouble there. Somebody was walking by there and the monster caught her - somebody else - and the Princess in Black was fighting the monster. She knew the monster was out there so she got out and fight the monster.</span><span style="font-size: small;"></span><br />

<div style="font-family: times;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-size: large;">What happens in the fairy book? Goblins try to get a meerkat. The fairies try to save the meerkat from the goblins. The goblins are trying to put it in a zoo 'cause they do something awful to the meerkats - the goblins always try to do something awful for Jack Frost. In the book he's a bad guy, but in <i>Frozen</i> he's not bad. </span><span style="font-size: large;">You don't get to see the castle there, and you don't get to see his face or what he wears, or stuff like that. The fairies want to go save the meerkats from the goblins. The goblins are always trying to steal something. The goblins lose but the fairies succeed.</span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Simmer 3 minutes, turn of heat, then stir in:</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">Chicken broth stinks - doesn't it? It smells like dog jellybean. I hate the smell of this one. Oh - it smells even bad outside!</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Are you kidding? This is going to be so flavourful! Is it going to take away the awful dog breath smell? We do not want our breath to smell like dog breath, don't we? Take a big whiff of that - that smells great! This is going to be like a potion - but it's going to be healthy for you. That smells so, so good!</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Let's take that out: the ginger is just for flavour - you can't eat that. </span></div>
<div style="font-family: times;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">This is a healthy recipe. I definitely agree: this is super good. This is Girl's Night lunch. This is really kicking the spot!</span></div>

Mom: You have to go to your bedroom and sleep there for the whole day!<br />Kid: No!<br />Mom: Yes!<br />Kid: Uh-uh!<br />Mom: You are naughty! You are <u>defiant</u>!<br />3. Clam chowder soup <u>nauseates</u> me!<br />4. The tide goes in, then it <u>recedes</u>.<br />5. I’m riding my horse with the <u>reins</u> on it. You actually have to hold on tight, because even if it is going slow it can knock you down. You actually have to hold on to the <u>reins</u>!<br />6. A book that always has chapters and chapters and chapters and chapters - and it’s a <u>sequel</u> book because it’s a very long story in more than one book. <i>Critter Club 2</i> is a <u>sequel</u>.<br />7. <i>Critter Club</i> is not a <u>trilogy</u>, because it has ten thousand books, I think. A <u>trilogy</u> only has three books.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">We're going to eat them - there's nothing bad for you in watermelons - and we're going to pickle them! How are we going to pickle them, Mom, how do we do it? We make the whole thing? </span><br />

<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q1VoK0Ga36w"><span style="font-size: large;">Exploding water melon challenge</span></a><span style="font-size: large;"> is you have to put a lot of elastic bands on the watermelon and do it until it explodes. Basically, you only have to wait for it, right? But what should we wear? Bathing suits, probably.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">Well, basically, Junie B. Jones loves Handsome Warren, and all the girls start fighting 'cause they're all in love with him. But look at his face - he doesn't look happy - look at him. H</span><span style="font-size: large;">e has a not nice face - a grossed out face - </span><span style="font-size: large;">I don't know why. They're getting all mad and feisty, aren't they? </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">She made friends with him by making him laugh, by making knock-knock jokes. </span><span style="font-size: large;">She called him a nutball. </span><span style="font-size: large;">I think they become best friends. </span><span style="font-size: large;">I can't quite tell if they have a crush on each other. H</span><span style="font-size: large;">e is a boy and he is her friend, so he is her boyfriend - it makes sense.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">It was funny - do you want to read it?</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><i>Who would you recommend this book to?</i></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Carlo would like to read it. Oona at my old school would like to read it - I think so; I think she would like it. Kate... I'm not so sure if she would like it, or not. Oona in Japan.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><i>How long did it take you to read it?</i></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Not very long - two days.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">This is her secret admirer, but he's pretending he doesn't like her. I just have to read the chapter page, cause that'll help me... I guess his name is Jim... they seem like they are in love with each other.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Mom! You gotta see this:<br />"Come visit me on my very own website <a href="http://www.randomhouse.com/kids/junieb">www.randomhouse.com/kids/junieb</a>"! </span><span style="font-size: large;">So what kind of things does it have there? Oh my god - I didn't know she had her own website! She is a spoiled girl, whatever she is! So she's an actual kid - isn't she an actual kid? Probably not, right? Her website is pretty cool-looking, already.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">I want to do the food fight! But I think it is actually pretend - probably like on the screen of the computer - I think you need to click on the door and something might happen, right? Maybe I can do this at 3, when school is over?</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;"><i><b>Vampire School - Teacher Screecher</b></i></span></div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">It was about vampires and zombies in a school - t</span><span style="font-size: large;">wo zombies, a lot of vampires</span><span style="font-size: large;">. There was a teacher - </span><span style="font-size: large;">I think Miss Fitt was her name. She's a zombie.</span><span style="font-size: large;"> </span><span style="font-size: large;">She was first not a nice teacher - she made them do all math, and nothing else - and then she got super duper nice: she gave them candy. I'm not lying - it's in the book! </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">I don't want a teacher like Miss Fitt - </span><span style="font-size: large;">I'm happy with math... </span><span style="font-size: large;">much happier, because they were not doing good math for me. I like my math teacher I have already.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">It was not a scary book - it was pretty funny, I would recommend this to other kids, unless they don't like funny books. I would not recommend it to Oona, because there's a lot of weird words, monster words, made-up words, and she might not understand them, 'cause she is Japanese - she might not understand any crazy words.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">It took two days to read.</span><span style="font-size: large;"> </span><span style="font-size: large;">I would read another book like this; there are more books here, on the back. </span><br />

<span style="font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Soaring Eagles - I liked all of it: I went in the forest with my teacher, Peter, played some games like camouflage, tag, and racing. I enjoyed animal tracks on the snow.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">Doing math homework - addition and subtraction. Addition is plus - you add them together. Subtraction is minus - you take one out. The best way to learn math is to use Smartie Blocks (Cuisenaire rods) and practice a lot.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">Becky, please don't make something crazy like this! Whoever did this was crazy-person! This is going to be the worst colouring ever I had. Now I'm going to get super-confused, because I don't know what I'm colouring! They're nutty - whoever made this was very nutty people! Very complicated! Mom, do you think this is even more complicated than the Harry Potter one? I think the person knows how to draw a little bit too goodly. I'm really tired of colouring - I want to stop and rip this page!</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">We got to touch a turtle at Science World. I wanted to touch the snakes. They don't let you pet the snakes because they have to stay for a few days in their pen after they get fed - they can't do anything because they might poop on you. Their poop stinked 'cause they just ate.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">You know how interesting this is - snakes when they get bigger, they shed and it's cool, 'cause you can see what it's made... the designs on the back, the scales. I bet an alligator can attack and hurt the snake, or maybe the snake can attack an alligator! </span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">At the Beaty Biodiversity Museum we saw dead animals - in jars, too. We were able to touch dead animals, but they were soft: a dead bird, and a dead owl wing. Shane was kind. He was a person that let me pet the animals that were dead. Seeing the animals in jars and getting to touch them was fun. And I bought a lollipop that had ants in it. Yeah - I did eat the ants. It was very, very bad.</span><br />

<br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: "arial" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">1. One thing I did to help a person recently: </span></span><span style="color: #222222; font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">I helped a person get to the hospital. She falled down on the sidewalk, in the snow, and she hit her leg and her head. We put two blankets on her and there was a dog and I got to pet the dog and help the dog get calm. The dog was still scared and I had to help the dog. We waited until the firetruck came, and then I went to my buddy, Owen's, house, and I saw my buddy Owen and I played with him with his dog.</span><br />
<div style="color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: large;">It seemed really dangerous for the lady, so we decided to help her. It felt really, really, really, really something good for my body 'cause I didn't do that before, but I felt good that I helped that person get safe.</span></div>
<div style="color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: large;">2. My favourite book to read: <i>Junie B. Jones</i> and also <i>Critter Club</i>, because it was my favourite books. They were nice. I liked the pictures, how it was made (how they drew the pictures). I like Junie B. because she is really feisty. I think all of them, when you are done those books, are going to be mysteries in there - they are all going to be <i>Critter Club</i> mysteries. I have four.</span></div>
<div style="color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif;">

<div style="color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: large;">3. I am interested in learning science... science kits. I do science with Dad. There's all sorts of ones; trust me - none of them actually worked. I want colour-changing stuff and chemical reactions. I'm going to go and take a science class one day. (starting Jan 31, but now postponed to Spring)</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;">Is it a love story? Well, the story is about the girl and the boy and they got married at the end. He's a prince but he was a nutcracker. The boy turns into the nutcracker 'cause the King of mice made a spell on him that made him like that. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;">They meeted at Marie's house because that's where she lives. Her uncle gave her the nutcracker because he thought that was a nice Christmas gift for her. Her brother was jealous and he threw the nutcracker on the ground and Marie cried so much that the nutcracker was hurted from the brother. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;">Uncle was in a dream that suddenly made her in a dream. Everyone was asleep, but not Marie.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;">The King of Mice was getting Marie and cursed the Nutcracker. And the mice were pirates, 'cause look: they have swords and look: and also an earring and a bandana and a thimble and a needle. </span><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;">Then they had a fight. The mice and the nutcracker fought together. The soldiers, they fighted with swords and wooden guns. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;">Marie was hopeless. Marie threw the shoe at the mice and the mice got upset 'cause they did, of course. And they vanished. All of them vanished by the big girl. And the curse gone away. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;">The nutcracker became a prince and then next page: so the prince bringed her to the sweet land and they saw ballets. The prince bringed the girl to the candy castle - a lovely prince. They got married when she was a grown up.</span><br />
