Need help...
I've started making baby quilts, receiving blankets, etc. to sell (we'll see if they actually DO sell!). With each one, I try to make a little stuffed something to go with it. When I try to use a point and then stuff it, it never comes out right. Think of legs with an inverted V at the crotch; when I sew the seam then stuff, it is bunched up. Don't know if I'm stuffing too much or is there a "trick" to sewing the V seam in this instance. Hope you understand this. I know there is a way to do it but need help. Thank you all so much.

When you sew the seam take a couple of stitches at the top of the V horizontally (when you do this the V is not a point). Then make a couple of clips close to the stitching to allow the seam to bend at the V. Also don't make the seams too wide maybe about 1/4 inch at V.

Oh, of course! Thank you both, Judy and Joyce.

Do you forsee any problems with that? Am I opening myself up for ruin? |
