now for the needle turn tute showing a point... you can refer to my post #2191 a couple of posts ago for the written instructions - I'd go back to read it and then look at these pics...
[ATTACH=CONFIG]402911[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]402912[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]402913[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]402914[/ATTACH]I put the needle exactly in the point... but sorry it is a little unclear! [ATTACH=CONFIG]402915[/ATTACH]again it's a little unclear, but I wanted to show you how I pull the top melon over and clip closer to the seam to reduce bulk.
[ATTACH=CONFIG]402916[/ATTACH]I was trying to show the needle 'sweeping' the seam above the marked point under the applique piece and as flat as possible towards the seam that has already been sewn. [ATTACH=CONFIG]402917[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]402918[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]402919[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]402920[/ATTACH]When I enlarge these pics it seems as though the point isn't as pointy as it really is. In the picture before the last one you can see how I sometimes come back to the point and take an extra stitch to accentuate the point some more.
