I bough this from Nancys Notions more than a year ago but have never even opened the package. Bad Crankygran!

There is a yahoo group - sew its for sale - that you can post an in search of ad. That is what I did and got the curvemaster foot for $8. And I love it! I made a drunkards path in no time at all. It is as easy as the video shows after you try one or two curves.

At $8, I'd recommend you get 2 or 3! On the Curvemaster website they're about $30. After a couple of years mine broke from overuse, I guess. I can cut blocks for a full size quilt in one day and sew them all in one afternoon. I know it can be done with a regular foot, but I swear by this one.

You really do need the tweezers on the last little bit :wink:
I love this method :D:D:D

So do I. It works great. Just have to learn to hold that top piece up as you sew.

Got one at the Lancaster quilt show in March. Haven't tried it yet, but hope to do so after the holidays. Hope is works for me as well as it has for some of you.

Merry Christmas!
