A busy work week and a birthday weekend (not mine) have resulted in not much sewing happening last week.
I did get a few bits done on a pillow I am making early last week but its still a work in progress!
I decided that tonight was the night to get my dresden circle sewn! So I set to it after work tonight and so far I am quite pleased with the results. I can guarantee that the seams will not all be an accurate 1/4" seam however its in the shape of a circle so thats a good start!
See I set myself such high standards... making sure a circle is a reasonable circle shape and everything ;)
Lynne has just posted the instructions for piecing the middle... think I will have to hunt out a compass to redraw my inner circle first though as my inner circle measured 6" I think rather than the 7" on Lynne's.
I am enjoying seeing everyone elses amazing circles popping up in the flickr group though!
So heres hoping that more sewing gets completed this week! :)
Really pretty colors. I am eager to see your circle middle and background choices.
ReplyDeleteLove the heathery colours of this one. My circle is not 7" either, but I think that's the least of my problems, having seen the instructions for sewing in the centre!
ReplyDeleteHi, I just came over from Brit Quilts :o)
ReplyDeleteMy circle was 6.5". Compass... laughs...I had to go out and buy one! and now I have the whole little maths set in a tin... it takes me back!
