I have done all the piecing for the hexie section of Winnie the Pooh...It now needs a serious ironing session. I think the little Clover iron will be the trick for this.
I sewed this all by machine - and for those interested - it went quite well - Once I set the machine to do a lock stitch at the beginning and end - and set the auto cut off threads - it was probably only a bit faster - but a lot easier,,,as I didn't need to think as much!!
I had marked the back of each block, so I pinned (mostly), sewed from the beginning of the seam line - and stopped at the end of the seam line.
This is an earlier picture....
On Saturday I had planned to iron it...and maybe start the borders....but...decided to do some cutting for another baby quilt I am making.
Thanks again Wendy - I really enjoyed the cyber party.
