I did. I think what I did was a turned method? I ironed under 1/4 inch and then used the same stitch I do with my bindings to stitch it down. Not sure if this is right or not, but it looks nice. :lol: I enjoy having hand work items to do when I am watching TV. When you say its all ready, do yuo have all of the plates sewn together? And they just need to be set on the foundation?
Now you should join in my Fall Dresden plate swap! Check out the thread!
