Don't have kids, might bequeath it to the Lost Dogs Home.

You don't have to sew curves at all, cut a square say 7 inches then in a contrasting fabric cut a circle say 4 1/2 inches, place the circle in the centre of the square, sew or machine circle to square, then cut into 4 equal parts, voila.

Andy was out of sorts, he just wasn't himself, Novak was in top form all of the tournament.
There is always Wimbledon, lots of sleepless night for me though.
Go Andy.
