I continue to make good progress on projects that I can't actually show you! But here is a little peek at one of them:
This is a pretty good size quilt here under my sewing machine. I have decided that sewing straight lines is harder than it looks! Somehow, FMQ'ing swirls and wiggles seems more forgiving than trying parallel lines. Yes, another thing to practice, practice. Any advice to improve these wonky/straight lines is much appreciated!
Sitting on my sewing table are these little bundles of fabric waiting for attention:
MUST have a Charlie Brown Christmas table runner to go with the tree skirt...right?
I think I know some little boys who would appreciate the above fabric!
This fabric (Dear Mr. Claus by Cosmo Cricket) just made me stop in my tracks...reminds me of my Christmas stocking when I was a little girl. What can I make with this wonderful fabric? Something special for some of my special peeps I suspect!
Linking up with WIP Wednesday!
PS I am thankful I have friends and family who love and appreciate items made by hand with love...even if the lines aren't perfectly straight!
Once you wash it you won't notice the wonky lines. They aren't even that noticeable in the picture.
ReplyDeleteI think the lines look fine. Wonky is better, imo
ReplyDeleteI don't think they look that wonky. I've always used the presser foot on machine to help me.
