    Default Turning Square Corners Into Round Corners - Cool Technique

    I took a class today to learn this technique. The pattern is called Green Tea by Southwind Designs. It's a table runner and each block is a leaf. You can use this technique on any pattern with squares. The first picture shows the leaf before it is "curved", and after it is curved. Pretty cool.

    That is really cool. I love the curved look of your leaves. Is it hard to do or learn?

    It was super easy and the pattern had excellent illustrations to go with the directions. The most time consuming part was cutting the strips.
