So - was the experience any easier, having wrong sides facing rather than sewing together inside out? I have to admit, it didn't feel that way at first, with 3 abortive attempts to manage the seams and the outlines. I still have an obvious ladder where I have stitched, but as it's neatly sewn, I am happy with that. Here's a couple of shots from along the way:
That last little side was the hardest one to sew, working with the stuffed article was odd.
And then I was done!! The finished biscornu (minus a button which I am still to decide upon for the centres) - my BFF decided on something different for finishing, but I will let her tell that tale over at http://apatchworkofcrafts.blogspot.com/
And here, finally, in pride of place on the mantelpiece (for now at least):
Stay tuned for more stitch-alongs, we have something else in mind for our next project, but we plan to take a socially-distanced walk next week, so we may spill the beans on our plans before we actually get the chance to start it. Really looking forward to it, I have very much enjoyed the process of working on the same project simultaneously, and watching how our projects grow and differ as they go along.
It has been a jolly journey, and hoping the weather holds for that walk, and I will get to see your new head in person (someone's had a hair cut!)
ReplyDeleteIt turned out very nice and almost doesn't even need a button! Congratulations on your finish.
