Very creative. You really know how to use the EQ I just don't get it. My son-inlaw works with it and designs some for me. A older women show me how to paper piece and made it easy for me, but you really need to be shown in person. Too bad we are miles apart would love to show you. Hope you find someone close to help you. Oh and I love your bio pic. If it was a pattern I sure would like the name of it. Thanks

On a lot of EQ's print outs, I have found if I use a scant 1/4" I don't lose my points. Or I use my ruler to cut a bigger seam allowance and then use a true 1/4" seam.
When I do these curves, I pull the paper off and then sew the pieces together. The paper seems to get in my way and it can shift on the curves. I put the solid piece on the bottom and the pieced on top, as the unpieced always seems to want to stretch more. But I know others who do the opposite LOL I also only pin at the beginning, end and middle. The more I pin, the worse it turns out it seems. The last curved pieceing I did, it was suggested to just pin the beginning and it was the best I had ever done... but that could have been a fluke, too LMBO I had to try different feet and methods on scraps to finally find what worked best for me :D:D:D |

Idea! Have you tried PP'ing the curves individually and then sewing them together? Make sense? :? If I've confused you, PM me. |
