Mom called yesterday and asked if I could make a couple of quick tablecloths for Thanksgiving. Anna helped my draw two big circles using the good old string on a pencil method.
I wasn't sure how to hem round tapestry fabric so instead I made a bias fold binding. I practiced finishing the edges by machine. Though I missed in a couple of spots I can get those by hand and I think it looks pretty good. I volunteered to bake a turkey for the teacher luncheon tomorrow so that is in the oven. I also had to bring home the class hamster because they were smoke testing the plumbing this weekend. I'll be quite a sight going in to work with my turkey and my hamster in the morning.
Yes indeed - quite a sight!
ReplyDeleteI probably would have hemmed the tablecloths by hand - as I once used to do when making semi-circular skirts!
Oh just make sure the right critter gets served up for lunch - lol
ReplyDeleteThat's funny!
ReplyDeleteI'd pay good money to see that! What a hoot!
