Wouldn't you
know, the fleece I really liked -- this soft, soft, furry puppy-printed
red -- was the sort that frays and runs and
ravels and sheds. So clipping and tying the edges was out.
Instead, I sewed right sides together, then
turned it. After stitching the hole shut, I top-stitched about an inch from
the edge to give the appearance of a binding.
The red fabric
was very stretchy; the white, not so much. So I was very glad for
the adjustable-pressure presser foot.
It took only 30 minutes to make this... but if I hadn't've had a large
quilt on the frame, I would have
done a large meander with the HQ16 to hold it all together. It's
60" x 60". Maybe later...
though I already gave the blanket to Baby Grant.
