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.
    OOOOOH OOOOOOH!!!! I love doing curved piecing!!!! Will definitely check this little baby out!! Won't be at the show though! :cry:

    Oh geeze, I bought one of these on the Internet and have never tried using it. Guess I should dust it off and give it a try.

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.
    Please let me know how you like the curved foot.....
