    Default Curved seams success

    Have never done curved seams before today. but I got my drunkards path dies on friday and bought some cheap FQ from joanns to play with if I didn't do too well. I have to say I am very proud of myself, because they actually look pretty good, and it wasn't to hard using my curvemaster foot. I thought there would be a big learning curve with it but there is not. I will post pic's soon as I get some time.

    Would love to see it. I haven't tried curved seams yet. I should put them on my list to try.

    I was wondering about buying the curvemaster for my machine, since I can't find a circular foot to fit it. I'm glad you've had success! I take it you think the foot is worth the money?

    I've had my curvemaster for several years and just tried it recently - I'm very happy with how easy it is to use and the results.

    I bought a template and pattern last year at the quilting expo. Thanks for the reminder, I will have to give them a try.

    Congratulations! I just finished by first drunkards path and am also pleased with the results. I just used my 1/4 inch foot and pinned it like crazy. I was expecting all sorts of horrible things and it wasn't as bad as I thought either.

    I am working on Kyoto Rings and saw this demonstrated at a show recently. Alas, it does not fit my machine. I struggle!
