    this looks like you did it differently than i did my circle feathers. you mention instructions. can anyone see them? where are they hiding?

    tell sharon schambers to move over. mgshaw's movin' on in!

    Hey Terri, do you need me to draw a danged picture for you???? LMBO I can draw (loosely used term) some really ugly pictures but you can more easily follow the sewing line. I never said I could draw so, no critics here, k?
    DUH!!!!!!!!! NOW I GET IT!!!!
    See? I just needed a GOOD drawing! lol
    What I was seeing in the other one was....doing a feather, then start and stopping to do the top of it. NOW it makes sense!!!
    Ok, I'm a little dense at times.....
    <where's my coffee? anyone see where I put my coffee?>

    Happens ALL the time. Even when I KNOW it's happening, I can't make myself see it correctly. It's like getting up in the morning with a song in your head and being stuck with it all day long.
