So, I got my awesome sewing machine for my birthday and it allowed me to speedily finish up a fantastic sewing project I was working on with my good friends A and E (We'll stick with initials until I clear their moonlighting on my blog). The project seemed simple at first. The prep work was actually startling easy. The thing that made it a bit difficult was the trim. This project was not a rectangle or square like my previous project. It was definitely rounded in lots of places. Add 1/4" double bias binding tape or whatever that stuff is called and it is not the easiest sewing. I am pleased to say they all turned out awesome and I am now an okay curvy sewer. Haha. I don't really thing that "curvy sewer" is a completely legit phrase, but it seems like a good description.
Since this project is a present for a few people, I'm going to wait till the presents have all been opened to post full pics. In the meantime, here is a zoom in of some of the fabric!
