Jen @ My Own Road said...: I love all the homemade touches! Here's my "Let it Snow" mantel that I shared: http://jensownroad.blogspot.com/2011/12/my-christmas-mantel.html; December 22, 2011 at 6:48 AM
Jess said...: i made my table runner last year, and its all curly. i love the fabric but it really burns my cookies seeing it not lay flat. why is it curly? how can i avoid that in the future? yours lays so flat and nice...; December 22, 2011 at 7:35 AM
Jess said...: (and i forgot to mention i did my best to follow your tutorial, but that was a challenging project for me. prior to that i think i mostly made nursing covers and crinkle bots); December 22, 2011 at 7:36 AM
Jacinda said...: Hey Jess-Im not totally sure but I'm guessing that your pieces weren't completely flat when you sewed the lines. A walking foot would help. Maybe using quilting adhesive or more pins? But at this point, throw some decorations on top to camouflage and pour yourself a festive beverage! xo; December 22, 2011 at 7:57 AM
