You have a concave and convex curve cut (like drunkards path) instead of fighting the outter curve (convex) peice into the inner curve (concave) you simply match the two ends together and lay them into the foot. Start to stitch then hold the outter curve peice up a bit and the foot will work them into perfect position while you sew the curve. No easing or cussing. and it is a perfect 1/4 inch.

I didn't see too many fabrics that were stand out deals but I didn't really need any either. I did buy some coordinated fabrics on the second floor. They were 21.50 (about) for 8 fats. Not a great deal but I am color retarded and need that kind of help.
Oh and one of the big batting vendors had 24 inch batting sample packs for 5.00. perfect for the doll quilts.
