One of them said she uses it on all fabrics so she can mark the dots, etc, and so she can know right side from wrong side. I do have some curves and basting is a good idea.

I have put many things together, only to realize later that one piece was backwards. My mil was a wonderful seamstress and learned from the best. She never made anything (any thing) that wasn't first hand basted. It is tedius to do, but if you have some curves, you might try basted them in instead of pinning before you use the machine. Good luck, I can't wait to see the finished project.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8355919784445028858.post-73282126753477696142009-11-18T20:27:00.185-08:002009-11-18T20:27:00.185-08:00What a wonderful project, Laurie!
